We now live in a time where activism and freedom of expression is a human right. These rights have influenced movements of change that have sparked crucial political discussions and debates, and in some cases, even had bills passed.

There have been peaks and lags along the way with stats showing one in five women experience physical violence by a partner in South Africa, but organisations such as Women for Change SA (womenforchange.co.za) and Keep The Energy (@keeptheenergy) remind us to be steadfast in the fight against GBV and femicide.
