In Senegal, a special school teaches husbands to help at home. The school is called 'School for Husbands'. It shows men how to support their wives.
Men learn to do housework and care for children. They also learn why it's important for women to go to the hospital when pregnant. This helps keep mothers and babies healthy.
The school uses respected community leaders to teach these ideas. They explain that being a good husband means helping at home. Many women say their husbands have changed after attending the school.
