Peace Hyde joins #Breakthesilence anti-sexual voilence campaign

 

Ghanaian TV Personality and media entrepreneur Peace Hyde joins forces to the ‘Break the Silence’ campaign. The campaign which was launched by the Eight Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the needs of female survivors of sexual violence by providing them with the necessary access to free medical care and legal aid, counseling and social rehabilitation kicked of #Breakthesilence with several entrepreneurs, entertainment personalities and influencers spreading the message and also urging victims to break the silence if they have gone through any form of sexual violence.

Peace Hyde took to her instagram (@Peac_hy) to say: 

“We live in a world in which women are BATTERED and are unable to flee from the men who beat them, although their door is THEORETICALLY standing wide open. ONE out of every FOUR women becomes a victim of SEVERE VIOLENCE. One out of every two will be confronted by sexual harassment over her LIFETIME. These crimes are everywhere and can take place behind any front door in the country, every day, and BARELY elicit much more than a shrug of the shoulders and superficial dismay. LET’S JOIN OUR VOICES AND STOP SEXUAL VIOLENCE!”
