"Unfortunately because of the stigmatization prevalent in society people haven’t had the opportunity to listen to these stories.”
Atifete Jahjaga.“NGOs have faced direct threats because the community wanted to keep this issue as a taboo.”
“There hasn’t been any war in which sexual violence didn’t happen because it is a weapon of war and a strategy."
