“Everyone is God Made; No Child is Born to be Abused.” ✊🏾❤️

📍Nhlangano Bus Rank | Shiselweni Region, Eswatini 🇸🇿

In a bold demonstration of unity, leadership and community action, The Deputy Prime Minister's Office Eswatini, in collaboration with Umhluma Women & Youth Foundation and the Nhlangano Town Council, led a powerful Town-to-Town Gender-Based Violence Campaign right in the heart of Nhlangano.

The campaign commenced with a symbolic march from Nhlangano Town Council to the bustling Nhlangano Bus Rank, a public declaration that Eswatini will not remain silent while Men, women, children and vulnerable communities continue to face abuse, violence and exploitation. 🚶🏾‍♀️🚶🏾‍♂️🕊️

Civil society organisations, healthcare workers, peer educators, youth advocates and community leaders converged under one mission:
✅ End Gender-Based Violence
✅ Promote Safe Communities
✅ Advance SRHR Awareness
✅ Expand HIV Prevention Services
✅ Restore Human Dignity

💙 CANGO News, through the HealthPlus 4 Men -Swaziland ( ) Project, proudly stood among the frontline responders during the campaign. The HealthPlus 4 Men -Swaziland Stall became a hub of hope, awareness and empowerment as peer educators actively referred community members for HIV prevention services provided through mobile clinics stationed at the event.

🩺 The presence of the Cancer Screening Mobile Clinic further amplified the importance of integrated healthcare access, proving that community activism and healthcare delivery can move hand in hand.

The Ministry of Health Eswatini also addressed critical issues surrounding Gender-Based Violence, Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR), HIV prevention and community wellbeing, reinforcing the urgent need for collective action.

This was more than a campaign.
It was a movement.
A call to conscience.
A reminder that protecting lives begins with protecting human dignity. ❤️

📣 GBV thrives in silence, but communities that unite become impossible to break.
