Join our Twitter drive #Fone4women
As part of the 16 days of Activism campaign of NO Violence against Women and Children, Women’sNet is embarking on a campaign and twitter drive under the hashtag #Fone4women. The campaign is aimed at the public to donate their old cell-phone to women and girls victim of violence as it has been previously reported that victims of violence more especially domestic violence use cell-phones to record and report incidents of violence to use as proof for their case. The cell-phones will be donated to victims of violence. We request that you participate in this 16 days campaign of no violence against women and children by:
