Safe spaces Program
Nairasha Legal Support introduced Safe spaces program in an effort to ensuring ongoing availability of psychosocial support for survivors of Gender based violence as a pathway to full access to justice. From our safe space proceedings with participants in project that was aimed at Strengthening Law Enforcement Capacity to GBV, we learnt that we could all do with a safe space be it a person, a group, a place or a space, to help us deal with every day hustles and stress, more especially those experienced in the workplaces. As thus, we are embarking on this journey of availing mostly to women ourselves to be safe spaces where they can unpack burdens and draw knowledge and strength.
Gender Based Violence discussions
WE STAND AGAINST GBV, If you are a woman or a girl in Lesotho and you have been or are in an abusive relationship, marriage or home and you need help, any form of help, even to just listen Nairasha is here to help you, ALWAYS. ALL WAYS. When people have access to justice, they are empowered to assert their rights and have a voice in society. This empowerment can lead to increased confidence and participation in community life, fostering a sense of dignity and agency.
