Our part

Each one of us has to play our part in the fight Against injustices ,from the young person in the community to the president . And ,every Generation has its own struggles and social ills that need to be addressed . We now live in a democratic country but right now our struggles are gender-based violence GBV ,high fees for education , youth unemployment , the lack of service delivery In Communities and many more .Movements like #Feesmust fall or #totalshutdown driven Or led by young people are bringing about change .

Stopping GBV

GBV is a huge societal problem which is why It is encouraged that we all be activists in our Small little corners and advocate for change . We need to change human behaviour and we need to change how institutions like SAPS And Hospitals respond to victims of violence and abuse . This is very important aspect of activism to avoid things like secondary victimisation . People who respond first must be aware of how to handle cases of abuse and rape to be sensitive , and also to collect evidence properly to avoid cases being thrown Out of court.

"Youth voice in activism is important as it is instrumental in driving social change ,advocating for the rights of Women's and girls ,promoting access to quality healthcare Education and gender equality . Thus ,bringing about development in our society ."

Why An Activist? Being an activist is an individual choice usually fuelled by witnessing social ills . Others decide to be activist because of personal experiences ,for example if they were raped how their case was handled . Many problems can be solved by individual . But for most a community is needed , civil Society is needed,and government institutions Are also needed.

Involved in preventing GBV .

• Develop agency among girls and young women to address unequal power Relations that exist between men and women.
• Encourage women affected by GBV to report
