In early July, Statistics South Africa released a report on gender dynamics in South Africa.
The report contains comprehensive sections on health and work as well as more limited sections on education, literacy, living conditions and other data.
Unfortunately, the report does not contain any data or analysis on gender based violence. Statistics SA notes that this is due to the difficulty of collecting reliable data on this issue.
Sonke is a South African-based non-profit organisation working throughout Africa. We believe women and men, girls and boys can work together to resist patriarchy, advocate for gender justice and achieve gender transformation.
