In Nairobi, the activities included a procession followed by an educational play. As a result, more women have come forward to report cases and request for information on the Issues, counselling and or legal assistance. There are also many demands to public talks and training sessions on different forms of violence against women.

Violence against women cuts across all boundaries of clan, tribe, culture, race, education, class, religion etc. Violence against women has deep roots. Society perceives it as acceptable and therefore sanctions it. The culture of silence surrounding violence against women masks it's prevalence and allows it to continue - a vicious cycle. This cycle limits women's personal development and their ability to participate in public life.
