Activists renew call: Work needed to fight gender-based violence in 2021 - SUREASH CHOLAI
2020 began and ended with incidents of gender-based and domestic violence which left women and girls dead or seriously injured. Twenty-one of the 47 women killed in 2020 were victims of domestic and/or gender-based violence.
While government and state agencies, including the TTPS, have put some measures in place to deal with the issue, greater change is needed on a societal and individual level to make a real change. Activists say while the issue of gender-based violence is one that takes the spotlight, the issue of violence on the whole needs to be addressed.
