- Ahead of the annual 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence campaign (25 November - 10 December), Ugandan human rights lawyer Laura Nyirinkindi paid a visit to SAIIA. Nyirinkindi has been working on combating violence against women in Africa for the last ten years.
We asked her:
Why does gender-based violence remain such a big problem in Africa?
How do we tackle negative attitudes and stereotypes around gender-based violence?
What best practices have emerged from the African Peer Review Mechanism regarding the prevention of gender-based violence?
What still needs to happen to reduce the high levels of gender-based violence in Africa?
