Gender based violence has taken centre stage in our country in the recent months with too many cases reported all over the media. In response to this, concerned men’s organisations under the auspices of South African Men Movement United (SAMMOVU) have organised a two-day consultative conference this weekend with a view to developing a sustainable plan to deal with this scourge. “This is a consultative conference of South African Men’s Organisations on gender relations and violence against women and children,” says Reverend George Ngwenya, one of the founders and organisers of the conference.“We expect to have about 500 men from all over the country attending the conference to help create a plan to deal with this shocking and rising phenomenon of femicide spreading throughout the country”, he adds.
