Sonke Gender Justice (SGJ) is a womxn’s rights organisation that is committed to feminist principles, using a rights-based and gender-transformative approach to achieve human rights and gender justice. Sonke works both in South Africa and across the African region to affect sustained change. Sonke’s recent external 10-year review (2018) found evidence that whilst gender equality and human rights remain elusive and are at times under increased threat in South Africa, the region and globally, the organisation has achieved significant success in multiple communities and contexts in advancing gender equality, reducing GBV, increasing health-seeking behaviors, changing social norms on masculinity, and contributing to new laws and policies, in South Africa, the region and globally, that promise to consolidate these gains.
The Safe at Home, Safe in Relationships Project is one of Sonke’s projects that aims to ensure that women and girls are able to experience safer, more equitable and respectful relationships with their partners and with other community members in South Africa and Eswatini. The project works with civil society organisations, including women’s rights and disability organisations, community-based organisations, networks, and alliances to increase their influence and agency to work on preventing intimate partner violence. It also aims to increase the number of women and girl survivors of violence who are reached through counselling and court support and who report feeling safer at home and in their communities because of these interventions.
Specifically, the project in Diepkloof and Orlando, Soweto, aims to improve community-driven implementation of initiatives to prevent intimate partner violence by:
* Ensuring that project partners have increased access to the resources and tools needed to implement gender transformative programming that addresses women’s rights and the prevention of intimate partner violence.
* Ensuring that individuals, including women and girls, men and boys, and religious and community leaders, have increased understanding and knowledge of harmful social and cultural norms and how these relate to intimate partner violence., and
* Ensuring that communities have increased awareness of issues related to intimate partner violence, rights, services, and opportunities to mobilise for change through active citizenship.
It is in this light that Sonke wants the services of a consultant for four (4) months – September to December 2022, to conduct community education activities that will meet the above listed objectives; as well as supervising three volunteers, called Community Action Team (CAT) members.
