This Guide Book is designed to empower communities with essential knowledge, real-life stories, and practical resources to combat gender-based violence (GBV) in Namibia. Focusing on the Hardap Region, the publication provides vital information on legal processes, shares survivor experiences, and lists key organisations offering support. Whether seeking help or supporting others, this guide ensures that those affected by GBV know their rights and the steps they can take to break free from abusive situations.
The publication is part of the New Voices, New Narratives project – a collaborative effort of DW Akademie, the NMT Media Foundation, and the IPPR, with support from the European Union.
The contents of the publication were produced by the Step Up Ark community organisation.
