Walk and Chat Against Gender Based Violence

The “I Pledge” Men’s campaign against Gender-Based Violence is a social consciousness initiative aimed at creating National Awareness, to encourage gender equality and show their support against gender-based violence.

The main objective of the campaign is to ask men to pledge in the fight against gender-based violence and to create awareness around the killing of young women and the damning effect it has on families and society. The campaign aims to urge society, especially men, to refrain from atrocities against women.

In cooperation with international 16 days of activism campaign which starts on 25 November and ends on 10 December, MADA saw it fitting to host the “5 km walk and chat” on 30 November 2019 at Zoo Lake. The walk and chat will engage our participants to speak out against Gender-Based Violence and will encourage men to stop abuse and rape in the workplace and in communities. We will have conversations about the factual issues that are faced in society around Gender-Based Violence and to let voices be heard, breaking the silence.

Date: 30 November 2019
Venue: Zoo Lake Sports Club, Parkwood, Johannesburg
