Bold Women Network Supports Gbv Victims During International Women's Month
Submitted by: Media Update Editor
Since its launch in January, 'The Campaign for Dignity and Courage' has focused on uplifting vulnerable communities. The initiative has partnered with several organisations, including Leratong Place of Love Crisis Centre, Looking Forward Creative Centre, New Life Centre for Girls and Ladies of Hope, to ensure that those in need receive the support they deserve, says the network.
"Our mission is to bring hope and dignity to women and children facing the hardships of gender-based violence. Through this campaign, we aim to provide not only essential items but also skills development opportunities," says Lerato Kadiaka, Co-Founder of Bold Women Network.
In addition to the distribution event, the Bold Women Network has announced the launch of a skills development programme, 'Enabling women to fish for themselves' designed to empower women and young girls with practical skills. This programme will help them achieve financial independence, paving the way for a brighter future once they transition out of crisis centres.
"The commitment to these women aligns with our support for the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW60) and the Beijing Platform for Action, further emphasising our dedication to gender equality and empowerment," Kadiaka adds.
The Bold Women Network concludes that it continues to advocate for the rights and dignity of women and with the support of its partners and community, it is making a significant impact in the fight against gender-based violence. Join BWN in its efforts to empower those in need and create a society where every woman and child can thrive.
