Take Back the Tech! video in South Africa

Women’sNet, with partner, Artists Say No to Violence Against Women and Children, held an event in Soweto, Johannesburg. They used the occasion of International Human Rights Day, which marks the last day of the 16 Days of Activism to draw attention to the role that new media has to play both as a tool for abuse and as a tool for protest.

In this short film Women’sNet Take Back the Tech campaigners asked people what the 16 days of activism against gender-based violence meant to them means to them. Kenneth Nkosi, local actor and star of the movie “White Wedding” also shares his take on the campaign.
