At the Saartjie Baartman Centre for Women and Children, we stand united in the fight against #GenderBasedViolence.
This campaign is a powerful reminder that change begins with all of us.
Join us over the next 16 days as we amplify the voices of survivors, talk about GBV need-to-knows, and work together to build a future free from violence.
Together, we can create a safer South Africa.
As we kick off the second week of #16DaysOfActivism, it is important that we all understand that #GenderBasedViolence has many forms.
Here is a breakdown of the different forms of #GBV with examples.
These examples may be relevant to you or to a loved one. Please reach out for help, either through us or your locals police station.
You can also seek advice and help from the National Shelter Movement Of South Africa helpline on 080 000 1005.
