On #mother's day was honoured to participate in this mental health walk. It's important to create spaces where women pause,breath,heal and be supported. Rest is resistance.

This has struck me had😭 @GorettKomurembe. A lot of awareness still needs to be done for societies to transform from the negative social norms.Someone still believes that a man is 3times intelligent than a woman! what happens to the generation of women that comes from him🤔.

[Magenta Girls Initiative @MagentaGirlsNGO]

We all have a role to play to transform the negative social norms, beliefs and practices that perpetuate GBV. Yesterday during the training of local Council leaders, one participant stressed that men are 3 times more intelligent than women.
What is your view?

[Magenta Girls Initiative @MagentaGirlsNGO]

Group discussion of young people only discussing strategies to prevent GBV including involvement of men and boys in prevention programs. "We all know that men are the majority perpetrators of GBV & programs continue to leave us behind. How shall we know that we need to change?"

[Alex Baluku @alexbaluku09]

Why not, it's a yes for me, we all have a life to live, we don't live in different societies, we all deserve better and equal share.

Kickstarting a 2 day capacity building training for Local Council leaders & Rotarians from District 9213 on Gender Based Violence prevention. Huge thanks to @Rotary for the financial support.

[Magenta Girls Initiative @MagentaGirlsNGO]

It's important that such trainings on gender & GBV Prevention cascade to schools. There is much more that teachers can help us with coz they spend much time with our children, says one of the participants.

Yes, women and girls should 100% inherit property from their parents. Women are also children just like men.

What if one gives birth to girls only? They will be the ones to take over what their parents have. @GorettKomurembe @MagentaGirlsNGO

[Magenta Girls Initiative @MagentaGirlsNGO]

This question attracted a huge debate today during the training. Should women and girls inherent property from their parents?

What's your view? Please share with us

We need to increase the number of women leaders in business, finance, banks & finance ministries. This can help drive investments in policies & programmes that respond to women & girls’ needs.
