Imagine building your life in a country for 10 or 20 years your job, your home, your family. Then one day strangers tell you to leave by the end of the month. How would that feel? Is that right? #HeCares#EndXenophobia#SayNoToXenophobia
Not all women face GBV equally. In South Africa, black African women and women with disabilities are the most affected ; and the least protected. Today let's talk about why some women are more vulnerable than others. π #HeCares#GBVAwareness#ProtectAllWomen
This week in South Africa, 5 Mozambican nationals were killed in xenophobic attacks in Mossel Bay.
Their homes were burned. Families were displaced. Over 800 people were caught in the violence.
How does this make you feel?

Governments across Africa keep making promises to end GBV. But the numbers keep going up. Shelters keep closing. Women keep dying. Do you think African governments are serious about ending GBV β or just talking? #HeCares#KenyaGBV#GBVAwareness
If a woman in your community needed help to escape an abusive relationship, where would she go?
With so many GBV organisations now closed, survivors have nowhere to turn.
Who do you think should step up to fill that gap? π

The SA government has made promises about GBV before. Do you trust that this 90-Day Programme will make a real difference for women on the ground? Or do you think more needs to change first?

New month new goals. Most people set goals for money, fitness or school. But what about how you treat the people around you? What is ONE thing you will do differently this June to show up better for the women in your life? π #HeCares#JuneGoals#GBVAwareness
Some parents provide everything their children need financially, but struggle to give time, attention, and emotional support.
Do you think emotional presence is as important as financial support in raising children? #GBV#Family
A peaceful home is not built by money alone.
Respect, communication, support, and understanding between parents can strongly shape a childβs confidence and behaviour.
Do you think children learn more from what parents say or from what they do at home? #GBV#Family
@Sophie__Gal True. People often speak up when GBV cases trend online, but real change needs continuous action, education, and accountability ;not temporary attention.
GBV doesnβt only leave physical scars.
It can also cause depression, anxiety, fear, stress, and emotional pain long after the abuse ends.
Do you think society talks enough about the mental and health effects of GBV? #GBV#WomensHealth
Women had to shut down the country just to be heard.
What does that tell us about how seriously GBV is being taken?
Do you think enough is being done to protect women in South Africa? π

Some people say "it's just the internet, don't take it seriously."
But words online cause real pain. Fear. Shame. Depression.
Just because you can't see the bruise doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.
Do you think online abuse is taken seriously enough? π

If a guy came to you crying ; what would you think?
Would you comfort him? Or would you tell him to toughen up?
Your answer says a lot about how we treat men's pain. π

Equality in a relationship doesn't mean you are the same.
It means you both have a voice. You both matter. No one controls the other.
Do you think most relationships today are equal? π
#HeCares#GBVAwareness#EqualRelationships
@Webbyknows True. Some harmful gender norms can normalize silence, control, and inequality in families and relationships. Thatβs why teaching respect, communication, and equality from childhood is important in preventing GBV.
In your relationship ; can your partner tell you how they feel without being afraid of your reaction?
That is trust. That is safety.
Do you think most couples have that? π
#HeCares#HealthyRelationships
When a man respects the women in his life: his girlfriend, mum, sister ;everyone is happier. His home is more peaceful. His relationships are stronger.
Today let's talk about why respecting women is good for ALL of us. π

Hari abana bakurira mu miryango itarangwamo amahoro. Ababyeyi bahora mu ntonganya kandi ibyo bishobora kugira ingaruka ku mitekerereze nβimyitwarire yβabana.
Do you think family environments shape children later in life? #GBV
Sometimes people stay in unhealthy relationships not because they are weak, but because they hope things will change.
But love should not constantly make someone feel afraid, controlled, or emotionally exhausted. #GBV#HealthyRelationships
