What is None in Three?

None in Three is a multidisciplinary project aimed at preventing domestic and sexual violence (DV-SV) in the Caribbean, initially focusing on Barbados and Grenada. The name comes from the often-quoted statistic that one in three women worldwide are said to experience violence in their lifetime

Our belief is that the only acceptable statistic in None in Three.

What does it involve?

• Original research with vulnerable groups of women, and with men and youth.
• The development of Training material  for civil society, public and private institutions to better respond to DV-SV
• A serious gaming intervention targeted at young people in education and young offenders.
• A social media  campaign designed to  catalyses attitude change at the societal level.

Why a video game?

A video game is being developed in order to facilitate role playing among young people.

through role play of situations based upon real-world cases of violence, player will build empathy capacity, and through their choices learn about non-adversarial conflicts resolution skills.

The game allows players to switch between different characters and roles to encourage behavioral change and the exploration of multiple perspectives.

What topics will the game cover?

• Domestic abuse in an adult relationship, and the psychological impact on the child.
• Adolescent relationships and how social media is used to control and abuse others.
• how communities can speak out against sexual violence.

How will this be accomplished?

The project rolled out to primary, secondary, and tertiary education groups, along with groups of young offenders in Barbados and Grenada.

These young people will fill out a survey designed to identify their current empathy levels and emotional responses.

they will then play through multiple sessions of the educational game as a part of their classes.

The student will finish up by undertaking the same survey again. The results from both surveys will be compared to identify behavioral change.
