** Purpose of The Consultancy
------------------------------------------------------------

Intimate Partner Violence continues to be a leading cause of injury and death amongst women and girls. There is a need for community awareness coupled with robust advocacy to address the systemic failures that contribute to the high levels of Intimate Partner Violence despite a robust regulatory environment. The National Strategic Plan on Gender Based Violence Pillar 3 creates an opportunity for the development of existing and new legislation to address gender-based violence in South Africa. To this end the Domestic Violence Amendment Act, the Criminal Law Sexual Offences and Related Matters Amendment Act and the Criminal Law Amendment Act have been passed. Unfortunately, legislation addressing GBVF specifically is not enough, other laws having implications on GBVF prevalence in the country must be developed in conjunction with the current GBV laws for there to be a difference. The 1996 Constitution gives provincial governments responsibility for the licencing of micro manufacturers and
retailers who sell alcohol to the public. This mandate is vested in provincial liquor boards/authorities. The Constitution also gives municipalities responsibility for the Control of undertakings that sell liquor to the public. As a result, liquor policy, legislation and regulation is fragmented, varying from province to province and, where local government exercises its mandate, from municipality to municipality. Furthermore, there is little real alignment between national, provincial and local policies and practices.

The goal of this consultancy is to raise awareness on the relationship between harmful alcohol consumption and Intimate Partner Violence with a view towards influencing national liquor policy in South Africa. This campaign shall run online and will include and aspect of documenting stories of experiences of victims of IPV.
