Description
South Africa has several ratified instruments that vie for the elimination and protection of women from all forms of violence. The country has also enacted key legislation, such as the Domestic Violence Act, 1998 (Act No 99 of 1998), and the Sexual Offences and Related Matters Amendment Act, No. 32 of 2007. However, women from all backgrounds, ages and socio-economic status in KwaZulu-Natal, a province characterised by high HIV and AIDS prevalence, have experienced violence perpetrated by men in both their private and public lives.
