WATCH and LISTEN: Readers commit to #mypromise | IOL News

Cape Town – With the scourge of violence against women sparking grief and anger across the country, Independent Media has launched a moving and powerful initiative - #mypromise.

#mypromise is aimed at encouraging men to speak up and be accountable – not just for their own actions but, for those around them - and commit to setting the right example for themselves and other men and to those who will follow in their footsteps. The simple premise of the campaign is that it doesn’t take a real man to read an advert, but it will take a real man to read this particular advert ALOUD. Independent Media is also requesting men to record this promise and send it out into the world and actively encourage other men to follow suit. We also asked men to send their video or voice notes to IOL's Whatsapp line at 0745573535. My Declaration has been made!! #mypromise pic.twitter.
