Strategy 2030

This landmark initiative represents a significant and urgent step to move beyond scripture and theology and take concrete action to end the ongoing crisis of GBV in South Africa.

Our vision, Our dream

Transformed, just and reconciled communities

South Africa has the highest incidence of rape of any country that is not at war, and is one of the most dangerous places for women to live. It is a whole society problem which requires action from all sectors and all individuals in our country. The faith sector has a huge role to play in ending sexual and gender-based violence.

Sensitising and equipping faith leaders to become advocates to end sexual and gender-based violence and survivor stigma.
Undertaking joint advocacy initiatives and campaigns.
Engaging men and boys, together with women and girls, as allies to end sexual and gender-based violence.
