Suburb painted in purple…16 Days of Activism! Action Step 2



The Queens Park West shopping centre in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe was a beehive of activity when the HIV testing and counseling team from Northend Clinic arrived on 25 November. Immediately, our team got to work. We distributed purple ribbons and talked to people about the need to end gender based violence. We made face-to-face communication with 207 people and we distributed 300 purple ribbons, posters and fliers urging people to end gender based violence.
