The second Presidential Summit on Gender Based Violence and Femicide starts today in Midrand. The summit was in response to the 24 demands submitted by the #TheTotalShutdown Intersectional Women's Movement to President Cyril Ramaphosa  following 27 nationwide marches on 1 August 2018. Organisations that are at the frontline of the battle against Gender Based Violence and Femicide, say the first presidential summit that was held in a bid to dent the scourge, has failed to make a difference. They hope that the second summit will deliver reforms that will compel the criminal justice system to prioritise justice for victims. This as many victims still claim that they are being failed by the police and the judiciary. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to Mandisa Khanyile of Rise Up against gender based violence
