This document outlines crucial strategies and interventions to strengthen the national response to gender-based violence and femicide (GBVF). It highlights immediate and practical solutions to address pressing issues such as resource shortages in Thuthuzela Care Centres, the need for improved mental health support, and the use of technology to enhance accountability in service delivery. The focus is on ensuring survivor-centred approaches, with actions to improve infrastructure, bolster resources, and streamline systems for a more effective response. Additionally, it calls for stronger collaboration between various sectors, including government, civil society, and the private sector, to accelerate the implementation of the National Strategic Plan (NSP). This framework aims to build a coordinated, sustainable approach to tackling GBVF, with clear targets and timelines for meaningful change.
