Speaking Out Against Verbal Abuse | Episode 136

Verbal abuse happens in several environments and can take many different forms that we might not be aware of. On this episode, I’m joined by Ms. Sheema-Bajana Samson, Executive Director of Gender Watch Against Violence and Exploitation (GWAVE) to help us understand what verbal abuse looks like, its harmful effects, and how we can speak out against it to help victims. Words can hurt, but they can also heal! Avon supports the cause against gender-based violence with #SpeakOut Dialogues, which aims to raise funds and awareness to help abuse survivors. Participate in the upcoming Kumu Fundraising Livestreams or purchase fundraising items Avonshop.ph where all funds go to NGOs that support survivors of abuse.
