Dear friends,
Oooh! Pweh!
The trouble-ridden 2020 is all but gone. How we wish it went with the problems that afflicted survivors of Gender Based Violence (GBV). Our happiness is that we got you our dear friends and fellow supporters against GBV ready to fight on. We saw a little light at the end of the tunnel, but we must ascertain if it is from an oncoming train or us breaking through the darkness that has been the tunnel.
It has been such a pleasure to work, collaborate, and learn with you this year. We appreciate our concerted groundbreaking efforts, but we note with concern that we have only scratched the body of work. Efforts to counter GBV have not been fully assimilated within the community lifestyle. But we are optimistic with your continued support, creativity and concern our progress is assured.
As we vacation to recharge, keeping the eye on the prize of a safe world for women and girls, we promise to increase our momentum in 2021.
We wish you a very happy holiday season and a new year that is full of health, peace, and joy.
Warmest wishes,
Edith Mecha
