So many explanations coming out of the mother who raped her son. Ok well lets say it wasnt her intentions (acc to other sources) to do so, what becomes of the boy, will that change the whole case into something "not rape"??

Something can be done to end violence against women and girls

[tashinga marira @MariraTashinga]

Poverty and unemployment as a cause of GBV in Zimbabwe.

People in dire financial straits are more likely to be involved in domestic violence. Half of homeless women and children are victims of domestic violence.

We stand with organisations calling us to action. Enough is Enough. A nine year old girl in Bindura is 27 weeks pregnant. How many times are we going to wake up to learn that a girl has been violated and robbed of her innocence, before we act? Enough is Enough!

[Trinity Project @TrinityProject4]

In Zimbabwe about 1 in 3 women aged 15 to 49 have experienced physical violence and about 1 in 4 women have experienced sexual violence since the age of 15.#listenwhenshesaysno @SwedeninZW @UKinZimbabwe @DFID_UK @AmbCanZimbabwe @CanEmbZimbabwe @DiakoniaAfrica @communitypodium
