Most men who rape do so for the first time as teenagers & almost all men who ever rape do so by their mid-20s.
(Jewkes et al, South African Crime Quarterly, 2010)

The GEO however, doesnt exempt that perpetrators can be from ALL age groups.

In South Africa, most young people have either experienced GBV at home; or they themselves are perpetrators.

This Youth Month, we speak out as Youth & Witsies against GBV.

In any climate crisis, women & girls often face the greatest impacts from environmental degradation & natural disasters--from increased poverty to escalations in gender-based violence. On #WorldEnvironmentDay, we are calling on you to #ActForEqual:

When we talk about unwelcome conduct, we can not forget the discussion around The “Big C”!
Consent must always be asked for and given enthusiastically and willingly!

As we celebrate #AfricaDay a year after the Covid 19 Pandemic arrived in Africa. The most jarring reality across Africa gender data is the exacerbated gender inequalities under COVID-19 placing women & girls at greater risk of GBV
