Workplace Gender Based Violence and Harassment: The impact on staff, workplace culture, and overall organizational well-being are explored. 2. Gender-Based Violence and Harassment in Male-Dominated Sectors: How these environments often normalize exclusionary cultures, overlook harmful conduct, and reinforce gender norms that heighten risks for women and gender-diverse staff. 3. Best Practices in Addressing Workplace Gender Based Violence and Harassment: Evidence-based strategies are explored, such as engaging men as allies, strengthening bystander skills, investing in leadership training, addressing power dynamics, and using holistic approaches to prevention. 4. Bystander Intervention: Fostering a culture of accountability, concrete intervention strategies such as "the 5 Ds", and empowering employees to safely address concerning behaviour early. 5. Workplace Policies: How well-designed, trauma-informed policies support survivors, set clear prevention standards, and reinforce a culture of safety, respect, and inclusion. 6. Insights from White Ribbon's recent research: White Ribbon recently engaged in discussions with survivors on how male allies can be engaged in supporting them. They spoke to 36 intimate partner violence survivors across a number of discussion groups and in collaboration with a survivor-centred community partner.

Somewhere in the world, a girl is married every three seconds. The rates vary in the Pacific, however in Papua New Guinea 27 per cent of women aged 20 to 24 were married before they turned 18. And in some countries, like Solomon Islands, the legal age of marriage is 15 with parental or judicial consent.  The organisation Girls Not Brides works around the world to put an end to child marriages. It says child marriage can disrupt a girl's education, lead to birth trauma and is often associated with gender-based violence. Sistas Let's Talk host Natasha Meten speaks with three women who have witnessed firsthand the impacts of child marriage in their communities. They include Jascinta Eket, a maternal health nurse who has spent more than three decades working in the Southern Highlands of Papua New Guinea; Joyce Koupere from World Vision Papua New Guinea; and Ellen Kahui, who is part of Save the Children's Make it 18 campaign, lobbying for the legal age of marriage in the Solomon Islands to be raised to 18 for all girls.

Joining us now is Lucia Mogale, a helpline agent at the National Shelter Movement of South Africa. South Africa is heading into the festive season, a time meant for rest, family and celebration. But for many women and children, December is one of the most dangerous times of the year. Gender-Based Violence and Femicide has now been officially declared a national disaster, and shelters are warning that cases often spike during the holidays. More people are at home. Schools are closed. Work routines stop. And for some families, that means being trapped in unsafe and sometimes violent spaces. The National Shelter Movement of South Africa says shelters and helplines are already under pressure and is calling for urgent awareness, support and actionSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The numbers are staggering, but the stories are even more urgent: sex trafficking thrives where demand goes unchecked and myths cloud our judgment. Today we sit down with human rights attorney Yasmin Vafa, co‑founder and executive director of Rights for Girls, to pull the curtain back on how this market really works—and why centering girls' voices is the key to stopping it. From courtroom biases that turn victims into defendants to the hobby boards where men casually review the people they buy, we map the hidden infrastructures of exploitation with clarity and care.Yasmin breaks down the “abuse to prison pipeline” and explains how forced criminality and self‑defense cases trap survivors—often Black girls—in adult courts. We discuss adultification bias, the blurred line between trafficking and prostitution, and language that normalizes harm. Then we go straight to the root: demand. Drawing from the report Buyers Unmasked, we examine buyer attitudes, the role of pornography and entitlement, and why credible buyer accountability programs focus on changing beliefs, not just counting arrests.Policy is where culture meets consequence. We compare full decriminalization—removing penalties for buying, pimping, and brothels—with the survivor model adopted in places like Sweden and Maine, which decriminalizes the sale of sex while holding traffickers and buyers to account. You'll hear how fines can fund survivor services, how major sporting events attract sex tourism, and why the “Sex Buying Isn't A Game” campaign tackles this surge head‑on. Practical takeaways include how to support survivor‑led services, advocate for buyer accountability laws, and bring The Right Track documentary to your community.If this conversation moved you, subscribe, share it with someone who needs to hear it, and leave a review telling us what policy change you'll champion next.

With the rise in telecom and internet penetration in India, technology-based crimes are on the rise. While financial fraud and digital arrests are the focus of the conversation, a less talked-about issue is that of digital gender-based violence. A new report, titled Experiencing Technology-Facilitated Gender-Based Violence in India: Survivor Narratives and Legal Responses, highlights testimonies from survivors who have experienced violence enabled by digital tools. The report highlights how digital tools are being used to harass and shame people based on gender or sexuality and shows that online violence is not just a virtual problem, it affects lives and has a profound impact on mental health and personal safety.   What is TFGBV, and who is most impacted? Why does justice remain out of reach for many survivors, and what systemic and social changes are urgently needed to tackle the issue.   Guest: Manjusha Madhu of Breakthrough, who is the lead co-author and co-researcher of the report, published by Equality Now and Breakthrough.   Host: mandira Moddie  Edited by Sharmada Venkatasubramanian  Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the last place any woman anticipates ever landing, but far too often, a woman's shelter is the only haven for mothers and children fleeing abuse at home. Linda Dröfn Gunnarsdóttir is the executive director of the Association for Women's Shelters in Iceland. Linda's reputation as an innovator and leader landed her on the BBC 100 Women to Watch list — a listing reserved for women around the world making a difference for others. We talk with Linda about Iceland being globally celebrated as a woman's paradise due to policies that advance equality, when every day she sees women victims of gender-based violence forced into homelessness.

In Pakistan, some women are murdered simply for having a TikTok account, one of the most popular social media platforms in the country. On July 11, in Rawalpindi, a 16-year-old girl was shot dead by her father because she refused to delete her profile. A month earlier, Sana Yousaf, aged 17 and with nearly a million followers, was murdered in her Islamabad home by a man whose advances she had rejected. Female influencers in Pakistan are frowned upon and become targets.

Today we're taking on a topic that doesn't get nearly enough airtime: gender-based violence, or GBV, and what it means for mining's culture, safety, and future. Joining me are three people who've helped bring this issue into sharper focus recently and their recent collaboration on The Intelligent Miner opened up a powerful and, at times, uncomfortable conversation about how mining can — and must — do better. Carly Leonida, founder and editor of The Intelligent Miner; Abbi Buxton, an independent consultant who partners with organisations across the resource sector, including mining companies, to tackle GBV and advance equality in workplaces and communities and Mahmood Sonday, Managing Director at Reos Partners, a global advisory firm that helps organisations address systemic challenges. He has worked with numerous mining companies to develop and implement strategies to successfully tackle GBV and harassment. KEY TAKEAWAYS The mining sector has a strong culture that can hinder open discussions about GBV. There is a need for leadership commitment to change this culture, which includes creating an environment where employees feel safe to speak up Tackling GBV requires a collaborative approach that involves not only mining companies but also governments, civil society, and communities Companies must go beyond relying solely on formal grievance mechanisms to understand the prevalence and nature of GBV within their organisations Addressing GBV is not a one-time project but requires sustained effort and commitment BEST MOMENTS "Gender-based violence is a human rights violation and I think often we forget that."  "The impacts of violence against women and girls amounts to something like 2% of global GDP every year, which is quite staggering when you think about it."  "The road to hell is paved with good intentions and bad incentives."  "It's not hard to imagine how these things that we might think are unadministrative or bureaucratic can lead to incidents of violence in the home or at work."

Ray White speaks to Sindisiwe Chikunga, Minister of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities, as South Africa begins its annual 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. This year, the government’s message is sharper and more urgent: the fight against GBV cannot be confined to a two-week campaign, it demands unwavering commitment throughout the year. Chikunga outlines a national call to action urging men, women, young people, filmmakers, the media and civil society to step beyond symbolic gestures and work collectively to end violence. Meanwhile, Gauteng launched its provincial campaign, and government introduced a new GBVF Dashboard designed to provide real-time data, transparency and accountability. The initiative comes in the wake of last week’s powerful march, where survivors and activists reiterated that gender-based violence has been a devastating pandemic long before Covid-19 and remains unresolved. On the show today, we examine the widening gap between government’s bold commitments and the harsh daily realities faced by communities. More critically, we explore what concrete interventions are needed to finally shift this campaign from awareness… to genuine safety and lasting change. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

A UN report shows that Kenya loses one woman a day to femicide or gender-based violence, with 2024 marking the deadliest year yet. At least 170 women were killed, a 79% rise from the previous year. Survivors and families say the violence is being normalized—so what will it take to stop it?

Lauren Wellbank admits that she's one of the lucky ones. She's a survivor of a near-death experience at the hands of a violent partner. After escaping her abusive relationship and learning that 1 in 4 women live under similar circumstances, Lauren felt compelled to share her story in hopes it would help guide other women who remain lost in toxic love. Lauren's story illustrates that there is life beyond current circumstances, and she emphasizes the critical importance of overcoming the fear, shame, and silence that precede freedom.

Our panel of Alan Dillon, Fine Gael TD for Mayo and Minister of State for Small Business and Retail & Circular Economy, Marie Sherlock, Labour TD for Dublin Central and Louise O'Reilly, Sinn Féin TD for Dublin Fingal West are joined by abuse survivor Sonya Stokes.

In this powerful episode of Philanthropy in Phocus, Tommy D, the Nonprofit Sector Connector, sits down with Kavita Mehra, Executive Director of Sakhi for South Asian Survivors of Gender-Based Violence, for an honest, vulnerable, and inspiring conversation about what it means to build a life of service and stand with survivors. From her working-class Jersey roots and 100-hour weeks in her mother's Hallmark store, to frontline overnight shelter work, to being fired from a fundraising role and coming back stronger, Kavita shares how every step of her journey shaped the leader she is today.Kavita opens up about being a survivor herself, the loneliness of navigating class and identity as an Indian American woman, and how those lived experiences inform her leadership at Sakhi. She and Tommy dig into the realities of direct service vs. development, the importance of professionalizing the nonprofit sector, and why fundraising is really about storytelling, connection, and aligning passion with resources. Along the way, they talk about the Imagine Awards, sector stress, and why small groups of committed people truly can change the world.You'll also hear how Sakhi has grown from a small organization with a modest budget into a $7M+ movement hub with a 50-person team, offering holistic, in-house support for survivors across the South Asian and Indo-Caribbean diaspora: a helpline and text line, safety planning, immigration and family law support, trauma-informed counseling, housing assistance, culturally specific food access, economic empowerment, job coaching, and more. Kavita and Tommy emphasize that survivors are the agents of change in their own lives – Sakhi's role is to clear barriers so they can safely make their own choices. They close with a call to action to support Sakhi or your local gender-based violence organization, because this work is truly life-and-death and impacts every community.Resources & How to Get HelpIf you or someone you know may be experiencing gender-based violence and needs support:Sakhi for South Asian Survivors

We are proud to support projects that amplify underrepresented voices and tackle issues that are often overlooked. These research projects are advancing knowledge, sustainability, justice, and inclusion." Two of the projects are funded by Cuan: The Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (DSGBV) Agency, under a newly-launched strategic strand. Dr Stephanie O'Keeffe, Cuan CEO, stated: "Cuan is delighted to partner with Research Ireland to establish a new research funding strand for COALESCE 2025, dedicated to Domestic Sexual and Gender-Based Violence research. A key objective for Cuan is to strengthen the existing knowledge base and build an evidence-informed response to domestic, sexual and gender-based violence, informed by the lived experience of victim-survivors. In this regard, the creation of this important research strand is of great significance to Cuan. "Given so many academic disciplines are of relevance to the study of domestic and sexual violence, Research Ireland's COALESCE funding strand provides a rich opportunity to support action and policy-oriented research, providing much-needed insights for policy makers and practitioners, and improving outcomes for victims and survivors." Funded projects include: Lived Realities: The first Irish study to explore the lived experiences of victim-survivors in sexual offence trials, aiming to inform future legal reforms (Dr Susan Leahy, University of Limerick) - funded by Cuan.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Luke Lamprecht, Child Protection and Development Specialist, about the heartbreaking rise in child pregnancies , a silent emergency threatening South Africa’s youngest girls. Between January 2024 and February 2025, Statistics South Africa recorded nearly 124,000 births to mothers aged 19 and under, including more than 2,100 girls between 10 and 14. Thousands more pregnancies ended in termination, with the Department of Basic Education reporting about 730 cases in that same age group last year. Legally, any pregnancy involving a girl under 16 is automatically a case of statutory rape, requiring schools to report it. Yet data remains incomplete, and accountability is scarce — we still don’t know how many perpetrators are charged or how many survivors receive justice or care. Lamprecht warns that the numbers reflect a deeper crisis of poverty, exploitation, and systemic failure, calling for stronger protection, education, and enforcement to safeguard children whose childhoods are being stolen before they even begin. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

How Pacific men and boys are joining the fight against gender-based violence

We talk about online misogyny, how it influences boys and men, and how it leads to gender-based violence. How young men are radicalised online, how that impacts women and men's attitudes towards relationships, safety, and self-esteem.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to journalist Ufrieda Ho from FixLocal about a grassroots crime-fighting initiative in Orange Farm, south of Johannesburg. In a community too often overlooked and under-policed, over 400 volunteer patrollers have stepped up to protect their neighbourhoods, walking or cycling through the streets in reflective vests, acting as the eyes and ears of the police. Unarmed and unpaid, these men and women are tackling gangsterism, drug abuse, and gender-based violence head-on. Backed by local businesses and supported by the non-profit RADA, the initiative is not just about safety, it’s about dignity, ownership, and hope. Ho explores how this movement is transforming lives and showing what’s possible when communities take the lead. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

In this episode, Kim talks to Rt. Rev. Dr. Emily Onyango about the East Africa Revival Movement that began in 1927 and is still reverberating through East Africa today. Begun by two people praying for true faith in the Anglican church, the movement grew among laypeople to denominations across East Africa, challenging patriarchy, tribalism, and racism. Because one priest oversaw six or seven churches, women empowered by the spirit preached, shared their testimonies and lead their churches. They dressed in white to mark their new way of living, and today a few of these very elderly women still challenge and influence church leadership today. At the time of the revival, Kenya's practice of polygamy was at an all-time high, yet these believers lived monogamous, egalitarian marriages. They sent their daughters to school in addition to their sons, and the changed the fabric of society. Today, the leaders against government corruption and tribal sectarianism have their roots in the East Africa Revival Movement. Guest Bio  Right Rev.

Marcela Lagarde (1968 - present) is a Mexican anthropologist, author, politician and feminist scholar who is credited with coining the term “feminicidio,” first to denote mass killings of women in Juárez, which had begun in the early 1990s. The term was taken up by Latin American feminists, particularly in Mexico and Guatemala, as well as governments, to address the targeted violence towards and murder of women.
