On Friday, 21 November 2025, South African women will silence the nation.
We call on all women and members of the LGBTQI+ community across South Africa to refrain from all paid and unpaid work in workplaces, universities, homes, and communities to demonstrate the economic and social impact of their absence.
Because until South Africa stops burying a woman every 2.5 hours, the G20 cannot speak of growth and progress.
We demand that Gender-Based Violence and Femicide be declared a National Disaster. Not tomorrow. Not at another summit. Now!
Join the G20 Women’s Shutdown. Withdraw Your Power on 21 November. Spread the message across South Africa and beyond. Let’s show the world the power of women. #WomenForChange #WomenShutdown #UnburyTheTruth #G20
Hello name is Amir Moosa. I am 7 years old. I live in Cape Town and I love soccer. I play for Norway Parks. I am a forward and I enjoy scoring goals. I am traveling with my parents to Saudi Arabia to perform Umrah because recently my mama passed away. As we are going to be in Saudi Arabia my dad bought tickets to watch the Al Nassr vs Al Ittihad on 1 May (which happens to be my mama's birthday). It will be a dream come true to watch my hero @Cristiano play live. My mum had special shirts made for the game with two of the people I admire the most Ronaldo and Madiba. I would love to meet Ronaldo and give him this special lion bear all the way from South Africa.

We said ‘never again.’ The UK was a safe haven. Now, after the biggest massacre of Jews since the holocaust, British Jewish children are being advised to hide their identities as they walk to school, for their own safety. There should be mass outrage that this is necessary.

Why is there so little concern for these boys or for the fact that there are criminals out there abducting children? The police, the police commissioner and the Minister must be loud and clear that there will be no mercy for perpetrators of these crimes.
