In his keynote address at the Gender-Based Violence and Femicide (GBVF) Summit in 2018, President Cyril Ramaphosa emphasised the government’s commitment to addressing the crisis of GBVF in South Africa. The summit, which brought together over a thousand delegates from various sectors, featured a powerful demonstration by women calling for the release of Martha, a woman imprisoned for defending herself from gender-based violence. The address underscores the importance of collaboration and leadership in tackling the issue, with activists like Mushi Mathe advocating for men to take a leading role in the fight against GBVF.
