Violence against women is not just a women’s issue it is a societal failure. In this powerful episode of HERcast with Dr. Chito, we confront the realities of gender-based violence and explore what it truly takes to create safer homes, communities, and systems for women and girls. In recognition of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, Dr. Chito sits down with Brenda Anugwom, CEO of the Nigerian Women Trust Fund (@womenfund_official a leading voice in gender justice, policy reform, and women’s political participation. With over two decades of advocacy experience, Brenda shares deep insights on: Why gender-based violence persists The role of leadership, laws, and accountability How empowering women reduces violence What governments, communities, and individuals must do differently Why protecting women strengthens society as a whole This conversation is honest, urgent, and necessary for women who deserve safety, for girls who deserve protection, and for anyone committed to building a more just future. Because when women rise, violence falls. 📺 Watch on StarTimes Rapid TV — Channel 176 Saturdays at 7 PM | Sundays at 2 PM ▶ Watch the full episode on YouTube: HERcast with Dr. Chito 🎧 Listen on: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts & more Follow for more impactful conversations: 👉 @hercastpodcast 👉 @drchiton #HERcastWithDrChito #WhenWomenRiseViolenceFalls #EndGenderBasedViolence #16DaysOfActivism #WomenRights #GenderJustice #ProtectWomen #WomenLeadership #AfricanWomen #PowerfulConversations Dear HERcast Family, Thank you for being part of HERcast with Dr. Chito—a movement dedicated to empowering and uplifting women.
