Stories of courage, told by women

the long version

Based on the personal experiences of women in Botswana who have suffered from various forms of violence, and not only the physical. Only one of the fourteen women interviewed was prepared to reveal her identity for fear of retaliation. It is hoped that these stories will help readers to understand violence from the victims' perspective and will motivate them to do their part in eradicating violence against women in Botswana.
