3 ‘throwback’ op-eds from my #EndGBV resource list

when I was back in Kenya, I participated in a lot of activities and forums like this. most of the engagements were organized by the UN Women Africa Unite Kenya Chapter which steered national events around the elimination of gender based violence (gbv). i have many memorable moments from those days and top of my list is #JusticeforLiz - Liz (not real name) was sexually assaulted by people she knew and went ahead to report them. The police caught them and for their punishment, they were asked to slash grass and given the ok to go home… let me rewind that. they assaulted someone and the punishment they got was slashing grass…i am still blown away thinking about it.
