Even as his government continues to be accused of protecting misogynistic men, President Irfaan Ali last evening launched his Men on Mission (MOM) – a 1000-Man initiative boasting that the programme will be the foundation to end violence against women and children.
“We [men] are the root cause of much of problems in society. It is now our time to be the root of the solution. To be the root of positivity, to be the root that makes a difference. To be a root that builds a support system. Men on Mission will be the foundation to remove violence against women and children. This is not the responsibility of women, it is a responsibility for us to work with each other.
