The premise is basically that a woman in South Africa is more likely to be killed by her intimate partner than by a stranger. Three women are killed daily by their intimate partners. Alarming statistics. We want to drive awareness of these stats as well as increase awareness of POWA and what they do.

We have shared the attached images across social media over the weekend of International Women's Day with the hashtag #SafeAtHome #POWA with the message:
