St Stithians Girls’ College Launches Gender-Based Violence Awareness Campaign

10/11/19—Gender is a matter that is close to home at NCGS member school St Stithians College just outside of Johannesburg in South Africa. The Girls’ College strives to grow strong and courageous young women who are destined for great things. St Stithians Girls’ College, with the full support of its Boys’ College, launched the #40DaysAtGC awareness campaign initiated, owned, and run by its student body.

Small acts and initiatives over 40 days are providing the St Stithians community with daily reminders, conversation openers, and opportunities to explore and better understand the rights of women and the desire of each one of us to live out our dreams without fear. This campaign is a step towards shifting attitudes, calling out behaviors, and actively working towards change.

Join them in actively working against gender discrimination and gender-based violence that plague our society.
