50/50:No Compromise! No turning back!

The events of the last week in our country have shown us that the gender equality gains we have made could be easily lost. The shock decision by the ANC Women’s League to support only men for top ANC positions compromises the 50/50 principle that all of us have fought so hard for. We are pleased to note that not all women in the ANC share this position and are willing to make their voice heard.

Please circulate this notice to your lists. 

Dear colleagues 

The events of the last week in our country have shown us that the gender equality gains we have made could be easily lost. The shock decision by the ANC Women’s League to support only men for top ANC positions compromises the 50/50 principle that all of us have fought so hard for. We are pleased to note that not all women in the ANC share this position and are willing to make their voice heard.   
 

To register our protest, a march is being organised by a coalition of all those who are concerned by this turn of events. The slogan of the march is: 50/50: NO COMPROMISE- NO TURNING BACK    
 

Taking place during the Sixteen Days of Activism, we propose using this opportunity to make the link between gender equality and gender justice.
