Advocacy

Survivor voices shaping public understanding and policy

FREMNET connects community awareness with policy engagement so women with lived experience can influence both attitudes and systems.

How change happens

Advocacy at multiple levels

Community

Challenge stigma and build support for dignified reintegration.

Public

Use campaigns, schools, markets, symposiums, road walks and online engagement.

Institutional

Engage authorities, civil society and partners on survivor-centred practice.

Policy

Bring lived expertise into consultations and decision-making spaces.

Current impact

Verified advocacy reach

More than 10,000people reached through advocacy and awareness activities.

Keep this as “more than 10,000” until a more precise documented total is approved.

Engagement

Invite survivor-led expertise

FREMNET may contribute to panels, consultations, training, research and public campaigns where survivor participation is meaningful, safe and appropriately supported.

Participation should never require a survivor to disclose personal experiences publicly or work without clarity about purpose, consent, compensation and safeguarding.

Move beyond speaking about survivors.

Create spaces where survivor-led expertise genuinely influences the agenda and outcomes.
