Today, we stand united with the countless women whose lives have been shattered by Gender-Based Violence in South Africa. This is more than a statistic — it is a national emergency, a wound that continues to bleed through our communities.
As we honour the voices that were silenced, we also uplift the women who continue to survive, to fight, and to rise.
And we call on every city, every home, every person to refuse the normalization of violence.
Too often, women speak — and the world looks away.
Too often, pain is dismissed as “normal.”
Today, we say enough.
We call on the men in our lives to hold each other accountable, to challenge the jokes, the comments, the behaviours that feed r**e culture.
This is where change begins — in conversations, in courage, in refusing to stay silent.
Aluta continua.
