Stakeholders in girl-child education have advised parents and community leaders to shun the act of protecting sexual and gender-based violence perpetrators.
“When the perpetrators get involved in any sort of sexual and gender-based violence, do not shield them. Let the law take its course. It is important that we use the laws to protect our girls,” they said.
The stakeholders gave the advice at a national stakeholders meeting organised by the Purim African Youth Development Platform (PAYDP) in Accra last Friday.
The participants included representatives from the Ghana Health Service, the Ghana Education Service, Social Welfare and Community Development, district assemblies, chiefs, chiefs and peer educators and parents.
