Women unite against abuse

The young women's desk is a platform for young women to discuss issues that affect them and present them to the ANCWL leadership so that they can be addressed.

Young women in the Ilembe Region were encouraged by African National Congress Womens’ League leaders to roll up their sleeves in order to impact society for the better and become great future leaders.

At the launch of the ANCWL young women’s desk, known as “AmaYangaYanga” at the Ilembe Auditorium on Sunday more than 100 women marched through the town of KwaDukuza from the ANC regional office to show solidarity against the abuse of women and children.

Chairperson of the ANCWL in the Greater KwaDukuza Region, Matozi Dlamini, encouraged the women to uplift one another and ensure that they always have each other’s backs at all times.

“We have numbers on our side but when it comes to being in power, women are not there. Why is that happening? We need to ensure that we uplift each other as women,” said Dlamini.
