“To concert efforts towards stopping GBV particularly GDV sharing knowledge and increasing awareness on DV through civic education on the law relating to DV and avenues for redress for victims of DV.”

ABOUT THE ‘SHE HAS A VOICE CAMPAIGN’

The ‘she has a voice campaign’ is a 3-month campaign by Afribright Network under the Hard Talk segment that will be running from September to December the 10th, 2022. 

It is a campaign fueled by the quest for the prevention and elimination of violence against women and girls

This year’s campaign will be focusing on Domestic Violence (DV) which is notably the most common form of Gender based violence (GBV)

Domestic violence, Pursuant to Kenya’s Protection against Domestic violence Act (PADV) of 2015, is any form of violence against a person, threat of violence or imminent danger to that person, by any other person with whom that person is, or has been in a romantic relationship.

DV is similar to intimate partner violence (IPV) and includes physical, emotional and sexual abuse and controlling behaviors by a former or current intimate partner or spouse.

 

Within the Kenyan jurisdiction, DV victims are majorly women with statistics showing that 40% of Kenyan Women are likely to face DV
