Our Programs

“This situation is precarious indeed. The only way we can change this is to join together in solidarity, with the understanding that we need each other, in order to affect change. We cannot value our independence, our abilities, our success and achievements without acknowledging other women.”
Josina Z Machel – Founder

THE KUHLUKA DIGNITY PACK

In a world where hundreds of women are abused on a daily basis, Kuhluka Movement chose to create a Dignity Pack comprised of basic essentials such as hygiene and sanitary items to be distributed in police stations and medical facilities immediately after a woman experiences a violent event.

CIRCLES OF SUPPORT

Kuhluka Movement understands the deep, emotional, psychological, and socio-economic impact domestic violence has on survivors of gender-based violence (GBV). Through the Circles of Support, specialized counselling, legal and health services are provided to victims and survivors of GBV to help restore their sense of self, regenerate and enable them to live to their full potential.

CENTRES OF HEALING

Kuhluka Centres of Healing are shelters that are central to the regeneration process. They are unique safe havens where women rebuild their lives, heal from their trauma, and bring closure to their abusive situations. This programme which is currently being implemented in South Africa seeks to provide abused women with safe spaces for sharing, self-expression, support, and healing.

ADVOCACY PROGRAM

Advocacy efforts promote inter-generational and multi-sectoral dialogues on the role of women and men in the violence against women discourse, particularly from a cultural perspective.

The Advocacy Programme Includes:
  • Naked Conversations
  • Custodians of Culture
