Violence Against Women - A Problem In South Africa
Violence against women has become a serious problem in South Africa and the
world. Information from
different countries indicates that 35% of all women have no
been physically
or sexually abused by an intimate or non-intimate partner.
While women across the globe fall victim to physical or sexual violence every day,
African women
are particularly vulnerable in this regard. It has been concluded that
African
countries have some of the highest levels of physical and sexual violence
against
women in the world. However, the statistics are sometimes considered
unreliable due to poor reporting - probably as a result of fear. The South African
report partly links the low report and conviction rate of violence perpetrators to the
post-apartheid public perception of the police force.
Construct an essay on Gender inequality.
Use the following as a guideline:
• Define the term 'gender inequality and provide TWO ways in which
gender inequality could lead to sexual abuse.
Discuss FOUR challenges faced by teenage mothers. (4X2) (8)
(1+2) (3)
• Suggest THREE practical strategies that teen parents could implement to help
themselves cope with the trauma of unwillingly becoming a teen
parent. In your answers, also indicate how support groups could aid teen
parents when implementing EACH of the above strategies.
(3X3) (9)
