Women Judges against abuse

The South African Chapter of the International Association of Women Judges will participate in the Sixteen Days of Activism against Abuse against Women and Children by making all Magistrate Offices in Limpopo available to the public on 1 December 2004 with the following:
To provide free legal advice to the public on domestic violence, maintenance, divorce, sexual abuse, abuse due to HIV/AIDS and all other kinds of abuse. This will be done voluntary by magistrates, public prosecutors, attorneys, paralegals and advocates.
They will also support the white ribbon campaign by issuing white ribbons to staff members and the public, and supporting the postcard campaign by having post cards signed by staff members and the public.
