On the 05th June 2018 at 10H00 am court at Lephalale Magistrate. Gender inequality is both the cause and the consequence of violence against women and girls. We cannot continue to live lives that are constantly under siege. WWAO is a Women’s rights organization calling for people to stand up and speak out against the violence.

Men must refuse to hide behind various cultures and traditions, equality and respect for women in more important than any culture.
