Ekurhuleni is one of the districts with a very high rate of gender based violence, particularly rape and hate crime against lesbians, men having sex with men (MSM), bisexuals, transgender and intersex in the Gauteng Province. All participants were in agreement about a serious need for an ongoing awareness campaign about the rights of women and young women within the district in order to address the issue of gender based violence.
