People suffering from PTSD and victims of domestic violence are at risk for many physical and mental health deficits. While there have been many factors identified that may cause the occurrence of PTSD and domestic violence, there is still a dearth in preventing these conditions more effectively. There is a need for aid provided to sufferers at the level of investigation, diagnosis, intervention and legal assistance, and a greater need for respondents to be sensitized to, recognize and deal with observable markers.

In particular, India is amongst those that rank rather low in the attainment of gender equality and parity. This paper aims to provide provisions for a gender sensitive educational system by discussing the nuances of gender inequality. Moreover, it also discusses why it is necessary to bring about changes in the current educational system for a more gender sensitive society. In order to come up with approaches that would help with this process, relevant literature has been reviewed to ensure incorporation of a wider range of strategies to provide a gender sensitive learning environment. Gender disparity in literacy rates in India has been examined, and changes in the curriculum, extra-curricular activities, training for teachers, vocational training, etc. have been recommended. Constant monitoring of these practices and evaluation would maximise the benefits of an altered, more responsive system of Indian education. Attaining gender parity in education will not only build more considerate adults, but it is an important aspect of inclusive education. One can hope that it will prove to be helpful in educating students about issues related to the LGBTQ and transgender populations, and adding to a better and kinder society.
