With the shocking statistic of one woman being murdered every three hours in South Africa, one man's tireless efforts to raise awareness and bring attention to this pressing issue are more vital than ever.
Michael van Niekerk (25) is not afraid to shine a spotlight on the gruesome murders of women, children and members of the LGBTQIA+ community, forcing society to confront the ugly reality of this relentlessly ongoing epidemic.
As the digital reach of his Instagram account, Keep The Energy, expands, so does the public's frustration and outrage, creating a powerful force for change that cannot be ignored.
Michael will not allow these tragic events to be forgotten as "yesterday's news". He is a true warrior in the fight against gender-based violence, and a true inspiration to us all.
