"Gender based Violence is inhumane and doesn't define a fair world".
"Both sexes needed to act with tolerance and fairness toward one another"
They further outlined some devastating repercussions of gender based violence  on women and the girl child(the most vulnerables)including ; injuries, untimed/unwanted pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) including HIV, pelvic pain, urinary tract infections, fistula, genital injuries, pregnancy complications, and chronic conditions.
