President Cyril Ramaphosa has used his weekly newsletter to highlight the shameful increase in child murders, rapes and domestic violence abuse in South Africa and has called on men to play a greater role in ending gender-based violence in the country.
President Cyril Ramaphosa says men should take the lead in speaking out and reporting gender-based violence, in raising awareness, in peer education and in prevention efforts.
Because it is men who are the main perpetrators of violence against women and children, it should be men taking the lead in speaking out and reporting gender-based violence, in raising awareness, in peer education and in prevention efforts, writes Cyril Ramaphosa.
