GBV HELP DESK
Often we hear, the unseen screams of the victims of Gender Based Violence. We at times feel the emptiness in their hearts due to the trauma.
But what we don't see is what is happening "Behind the Hidden Veil" of what they are going through.
We have developed a multi-stakeholder relationship with many organizations especially, NPO's and NGO's that focus mainly on assisting community members in many ways so that they may help victims to survive, thrive and live better lives.
We are currently working on implemny a multi-stakeholder intervention to assist the victims of GBV and to prevent further harm for the victims who have been forcefully violated.

And, we will do the rest!
"Behind The Hidden Veil"
When we launched the "Behind the Hidden Veil" Campaign on the 25 of November 2025 we did not expect it to have such a huge turnaround especially in places where you would never imagine. From the process, to the time it took us to unlock the closed tasks and completing the launch it has created a unique unified umbrella of people who oppose GBV, Child Abuse, domestic Violence and GBVF in various communities.
After our launch the "Behind the Hidden Veil" Campaign, has proven to us that the country needed a voice, it needed us to unite as one spirit and to speak about the dreadful injustices which are happening within our homes our communities and our Provinces. For us to solve crimes and to close this huge gap that needed the whole Nation to stand firm and to create ongoing movements about the radical eradication of Gender Based Violence.
We have since to date have helped in solving and resolving over 58 cases which were reported only within the short period of the 16 Days of Activism against women, children and people with disabilities.
Through the rooting out of animalistic behaviour and eradication of GBV. We want to urge the community members to continue the fight against GBV, Child Abuse and social crimes against women and children. The high volume of such cases are yet to be discovered as we have uncovered that a large portion still remains hidden in Veils and are covered with makeup, but what hurts the most is that we are human and the symptoms of abuse have funny ways of exposing themselves. So become a Veil Buster and assist us in redefining GBV, domestic violence and Child abuse especially from a community's point of view and how we can all deal with this in society as a collective.
As we close the purple month! We hope to take with us the pain taken by each victim and to endure it as it really hurts when there is nobody to save you. We desire to mourn for those who lost their lives and also to remember their souls as they will be dearly missed by their families and loved ones. We would like you to volunteer and to be a Veil Buster (VB) this is a Special Social Crime Response Team that offers support to community members and assists in looking after those we love the most.
We thank you all, for each of your efforts taken in developing educational, informative communication instruments and material to assist in the prevention of this illness called GBV and GBVF.
With the recent advancement in partnering with Mens and Boys Advocates, we are steering into the direction of grooming young boys, men and elders to advocate against women and child abuse. This initiative is slowly but surely gaining momentum as people are assisting in driving the change of social morals by teaching their children and family members proper ways of living. Through advanced psychological efforts that lead us into civilization and acceptable morality, within the various families we live in.
The collaboration further entails the plasticity of strengthening the characters of these young men especially at schools and public spaces which is great as they are showing great results in their behavioural changes through what they have learned and understand.
Our partnership further aims to:
1) Increased community impact through combined resources, knowledge and expertise.
2) Greater outreach and visibility for both organizations
3) Improved access to support services for vulnerable individuals, traumatized families
4) Shared expertise in stakeholder engagements and community development through skills
transfer, and training programmes
