Systems Change

I have seen what happens when voices come together and demand change.
I believe we can do it in Africa too.
Survivors should not be denied safety because of where they live. They should not be denied support because of what they can afford. They should not be silenced by stigma, culture or fear.
Silence protects violence. Our voices can help change that.
