dc.description.abstractAbstract Since the 1970s, gender issues have emerged on the international scene and they currently occupy the centre of women activism particularly in African and Asian countries where sexual discrimination is still a crucial factor in social integration and peaceful coexistence. Gender inequality is the fundamental cause of the generic problems in virtually all sectors of life: family, work place, cultural and religious settings to mention a few key areas. Evidently, a sustainable behavior change would no doubt require counselling and psychotherapy of both the prey and the predator. In this paper, the issues are immemorial; it has a physiological, cultural and religious undertone; it has its tentacles deeply entwined in all fabrics of human endeavours and finally it is the cause of most deaths in women and the reason for most criminal acts against women. Recommendations for a way forward are made. It will require programmed gender education by which all pupils and students are taught mutual respect, National constitution and its provision for the rights of the individual so that they may know that violating the rights of a woman is violating the rights of a nation as it's corollary has been widely accepted that when you educate a woman you educate a whole nation. Nevertheless, it is only a concerted effort and the goodwill of the populace that will engender a sustainable behavior change in gender relations.en_US
