Radio Program Helps Survivors Feel Safer in Reporting Gender Violence


 

The all-boys Radio Listening Club at Dzimwe Radio in Monkey Bay, Malawi teamed up with several father/mother groups and police officers to do a community outreach about gender-based violence and how to report it.  Police inspector Matthews Banda says the road show in late October around Monkey Bay reached approximately 500 people. Dzimwe Radio youth reporters produced a radio program and several public service announcements around this event. The number of reported cases of gender-based violence has climbed by 43% in the period from July-October 2023 compared to the same period last year.
