From the 25th of November we commemorate 16 days of activism against Gender Based Violence and On Saturday we participated in the National Tree Planting Day event with the theme Trees Against GBV. Majority of people do over look the importance of nature in our lives, how it acts as a booster to serotonin (neurotransmitter) and activate calmness in us.
Gender Based Violence is nowhere near calmness and if we are to calm ourselves and keep our mental health in check we can reduce rates of violence.
We were graced with OK Zimbabwe Kuwadzana, Insight Wellbeing, Zimbabwe Republic Police - ZRP Victim Friendly Unit, Eden Futuristic minds educating our community about the various forms of GBV and the role of the police in efforts towards the elimination of GBV.
We planted 20 indigenous trees including the tree of the year Mukashu (Rauvofia Caffra), Mutondo, Red mahogany, Nzambara, Muwonde, munyii and others 🌱💚
