Trigger warning: Accounts of sexual violence. Healing, strength, and hope emerge even in the face of horrific gender-based violence. This is the journey of survivors like Tausi, Maria, and Rose in northern Mozambique—a journey that mirrors the experiences of many women and girls in Cabo Delgado who have survived gender-based violence and are now reclaiming their lives. You can help women continue their journey of healing and empowerment. Stand with survivors and support organizations like UNHCR that are creating spaces where women can heal and start rebuilding. Note: To report this story, women’s empowerment groups in Cabo Delgado were consulted and volunteers offered to share their stories. The names of survivors were changed to protect their identities.

https://lnkd.in/dTResuiR Do you know about Boy Child Advancement and Protection Foundation-BCAPF International? The upbringing of the boy child in our society today is faulty. We channel our energy on the girl child. We show much concern about the trials and the challenges of the girl child.   Without downplaying the laudable efforts of many individuals for the girl child it must however be stated that many of those problems would not have arisen if the boys are trained to become civilized and responsible men. Many male children are subjected to different forms of abuse sexual, physical and otherwise. They are victims of forced conscription as child soldiers and forced labour by unscrupulous employers. Even some parents find it handy to lend their male children to child labour in the name of family survival. Even when the society observes this, no one takes it as anything. The boy child is generally seen as the man in the making, naturally formidable enough to survive all odds. But this is not true. The boy child is not made of stone but of normal human sensibilities, subject to feelings and emotions.  Sustained abuse gradually dehumanizes the boy child. If help does not come, his emotions turn sour and he develops a seething anger and bitterness against the society. The monster in him is ready waiting for manifestation.  Rape, armed robbery, kidnapping, terrorism and other heinous crimes are pepertuated by irrespopnsible men who we failed to protect and train when they were younger. Childhood and adolescent periods are formative stages in life. Habits and characters developed in this stage stay for a lifetime. Therefore protecting and reforming the boy child is a duty not an option. All the advancement of human society will be at risk it we neglect this very duty. Bad governance, corruption, drug trafficking and other evil activities cannot be put in check except we deliberately transform the life of the boy child so that he won't grow up to replace the present perpetrators. The future of our lives and society is in our hands. No matter your profession , tribe or religion, we all have roles to play.  Join hands with us to care for, love, protect and reform the boy child to become wonderful men tomorrow. It is to the benefit of all.  At the Boy Child Advancement and Protection Foundation (BCAFP) International, we envision a world where every boy child has the opportunity to reach his full potential.
