Erika Sumner#BREAKING #NEWS: BIG day for #women in #SouthAfrica! After an online campaign and today’s countrywide protest “lie down”, South Africa has announced it’s classifying violence against women a national disaster. In a country where women are murdered at five times the global average, the government is finally going to put real resources behind fighting gender based violence. 💜

OkayAfrica🇿🇦 South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa’s recent speech acknowledged femicide and Gender-Based Violence as a national ‘crisis’
First reactions online suggest that many are not satisfied with the empty promises continuously given by the presidency. Many will still move ahead with the ‘G20 Womens Shutdown’.
What do you believe will come from President Ramaphosa’s speech? Let us know in the comments 👇🏾

WasdNedSagsdIch möchte diesen Moment nutzen, um euch auf die Petition und den Protesttag von Woman for Change aufmerksam zu machen, da jeder weitere Femzid einer zu viel ist und in Südafrika im weltweiten Vergleich die Zahlen 5x so hoch sind.
