Today marks the first day of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-based Violence, as a South African woman this issue stays close to my heart because of how dangerous the country could be for people like me.
To observe these days of awareness, we will be speaking to different people who are active participants in spreading awareness of GBV and helping protect women.
Today we have Dr Yak
Dr. Yak Lindy is an accomplished oral surgeon and passionate activist for social change.
