2025 is for unstereotyiping!
No more “women are”:
too loud,
too emotional,
too ambitious,
too difficult,
too bossy,
too much,
Looking forward to seeing women thrive in their element as BOLD contributors! 🎊

UG - GBV is an issue that affects both genders. We need #personnel of both genders to tackle both men and women cases. GBV requires both genders collaborating to end the vice. As we empower the girl child, the men need inclusion and empowerment to enable #collective #action.

Cindy (Youth Senate) - Psychosocial support necessary in the tackling of GBV. We need to collectively address the issue as a society. The causes should be identified holistically and tackled intentionally. #16DaysOfActivism2024 #femicide #genderjustice #EndViolenceAgainstWomen
