Rise Up Against Femicide: A Call for Change

In this powerful video from Rise Up Against Gender-Based Violence, the team commemorates International Day of Femicide and the broader 16 Days of Activism campaign. Featuring voices like Vanita Daniels, Zuleikha Gaboo Ndlovu, Nkeletseng Tsetsane, and Mandisa Khanyile, this session highlights the global femicide crisis. South Africa’s femicide rate is shockingly five times higher than the global average. The video urges a critical social behavioural change to combat gender-based violence, from better justice system responses to sensitisation training for health and law enforcement professionals. Enough is enough—it’s time for a societal shift. #SheDoesNotBelongToYou #RiseUpAgainstFemicide
