SOUTH AFRICA GENDER BASED VIOLENCE

South Africa Gender based violence demonstration

epa09606854 An activist from Impilo Collection Foundation stands amongst 6000 women's bras at a Gender Based Violence (GBV) demonstration at the Women's Prison at Constitution Hill, Johannesburg, South Africa, 27 November 2021. The 6,000 bras where placed in a gallery as an act of non-tolerance to the social norms perpetuating gender-based violence, before handing over its memorandum to the Constitutional Court. GBV can be physical, sexual, emotional, financial or structural, and can be perpetrated by intimate partners, acquaintances, strangers and institutions. Most acts of interpersonal gender-based violence are committed by men against women, and the man perpetrating the violence is often known by the woman, such as a partner or family member. South Africa has one of the highest rates of GBV in the world with 2700 women being killed due to GBV in 2019 alone. EPA/KIM LUDBROOK
