[National Shelter Movement of South Africa] The National Shelter Movement of South Africa (NSMSA) deplores the systemic failures exposed in the Public Protector's latest report on gender-based violence (GBV). The findings paint a harrowing picture of survivors left stranded by an ineffective justice system, placing immense strain on the country's shelters. For the NSMSA the report is both a wake-up call and a rallying cry for urgent action on survivors on GBVF.
