Community invited to a dialogue to end GBV

The aim of the event, among other things, is to educate the community on how to report such cases.

The SAPS, in partnership with various stakeholders, is calling the community to a dialogue to end gender-based violence.

“We have realised that this problem needs all of us to come together, and work towards a common goal.

“These things are happening behind closed doors and it is not always easy for the police to crack down on perpetrators.
