In our community I find that a lot of women are keeping silent. It's hard to reach them. I see a lot of young girls in relationships at a very young age, and they have bruises on their faces. They're not telling anyone, but you can see that they're in violent relationships.
We have a safe house and a shelter for women. I would like to see more youth hostels. We need to reach the young women, and the women in the community need to come forward to break the silence in the community.
I know there is sexual abuse, but also there's silence. Nobody is speaking out because in a small community everybody knows everybody, and there is a big division in the community. That division also affects the way people keep silent. We need to break that cycle. We need to open the doors for our young women and the women in the community.
