As the 16 Days of Activism for No Violence against Women and Children campaign draws to a close on Sunday, activists say the fight to curb the scourge is far from over. Despite the countrywide awareness campaign, women and children have still been raped and murdered during this period. “It’s a tragedy that at the very same area the programme was launched, women were raped,” Reverend Xolamzi Sam, who is the leader of the Eastern Cape Men’s Movement, told the Dispatch.

There are cases where women who have been subjected to gender-based violence defend the perpetrators.

The 16 Days of activism against Gender-Based Violence (GBV) starts with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women on November 25 and culminates with Human Rights Day on December 10. These two markers symbolise what we know to be true: Achieving gender equality is not possible without addressing GBV, a human rights abuse that holds back women and girls from fully and safely participating in social, economic, and political life. Ultimately, GBV harms all of us, regardless of who experiences it, and prevents our communities from reaching their full potential.
