Men of various ages marched through Rundu as part of the 16 Days of Activism, which aims to create awareness of gender-based violence.

Rundu men came out in numbers for what is referred to as the "Commitment Walk."

The Women's Action for Development (WAD) conducted a five-day' workshop on gender-based violence (GBV) for male police officers.

The workshop, which was held at Rundu, was attended by members of the force from all the country's 14 regions.

The Zambezi Region lacks the capacity and human resources to deal with gender-based violence involving victims under the age of 18.

This was revealed during the visit of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Gender Equality, Social Development, and Family Affairs at Katima Mulilo. 

The increasing use of drugs and alcohol, especially among teenagers, has become a serious concern for residents of Walvis Bay and Swakopmund in the Erongo Region.

While the festive season can be a joyful time for many, it sometimes leads to underlying tensions within family relations that come to the surface.
