Speaker, Cllr. Lockman-Naidoo said it’s important to come up with interventions that address social challenges that lead to GBV incidents. “We cannot address issues in isolation…We want to strengthen relations between government and stakeholders who are dealing directly with these issues in their communities.”

SAPS Victim Support, Childline SA, CPF, Neighborhood Watch, Victory Outreach and religious leaders are some of the stakeholders partaking today, highlighting some of the services they offer to survivors of abuse and their families. -MMM
