Minister Sindisiwe Chikunga launches End GBVF Dashboard, 26 Mar

Minister Sindisiwe Chikunga, in the Presidency for Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities, will deliver opening remarks at the launch of the National End GBVF Dashboard on Wednesday, 26 March 2025 at the Anglo American Centre for Experiential Learning in Johannesburg during the Roots to Rise event.

This is not just a launch — it is a pivotal moment for the End GBVF Movement. For the first time, South Africa will have a public-facing tool that enables municipalities, service providers, and civil society to track progress, identify service gaps, and prioritise areas for improvement in the fight against Gender-Based Violence and Femicide (GBVF).

The Dashboard will serve as both a mirror and a map — reflecting the state of GBVF services across the country, while guiding action and collaboration going forward. It brings visibility to community-level efforts, helps make systemic shifts, and empowers all sectors to take informed, decisive steps.
