Swaziland: The difference between stopping abuse and interfering
10.05.2006
An initiative by the child welfare NGO, Save The Children, is managing to overcome the timidity of urban dwellers in Swaziland about "getting involved" in neighbours' domestic disputes. "Looking the other way, and turning a deaf ear to screams and cries for help next door have led to tragedies. We are giving people a way to get involved while allowing them to remain anonymous," said Elizabeth Kgalolo, programme director at Save the Children.
