PSA : What to do incase of rape. Sexual assault can leave survivors with trauma which can be both physical and emotional. Every survivor has different experiences, but more often than not, most rape survivors may be in too much shock to act, immediately after the rape

GBV is not a private issue it affects us all. What is our commitment moving forward?

Do we know where survivors and victims of GBV can access resources? This enables us to stop being spectators and become active bystanders and offer meaningful support

How do we help without judgement?

We understand recovery is hard , what are the practical steps towards rebuilding?

How do we ensure that survivors are not blamed for speaking out ?

How do we ensure we treat GBV information as confidential and not gossip? What are the dos and donts?

Warning signs that people often ignore? How do you tell people what to watch out for?

If someone tells you they're undergoing GBV what are the steps they should take ? If they are afraid how do you assure them? #bintishine #Usikimye

We are ready for our Twitter chat this afternoon.

'As an indigenous woman, I have witnessed firsthand the realities that many girls and women continue to face, harmful cultural practices, limited access to education, and the systemic inequalities that silence many voices before they can even be heard. My path into human rights work was not planned in the traditional sense, it was born out of lived experience, survival, and a deep commitment to ensure that other girls and women do not endure the same barriers.' Jane Meriwa @JaneMeriwas - Founder Samburu Women Trust @SamburuWtrust #NiMamaVoices #GivetoGain #NiMamaNetwork
