TVs are a very useful tech tool in contributing to a GBV free Uganda. In the past decade alone, quite a number of interesting TV stations have emerged like NTV, NBS and Bukedde TV. These portray actual thoughts and social structures of the majority of Ugandans. Some of the talk shows are an avenue for women and men in despondent situations most due to domestic violence to share and heal. This is definitely an up towards using tech to promote GB violence freedom. On the other hand however, there are other infiltrations that promote the opposite and the younger generation feeds their minds with distorted information that is hard to erase. I think that TV broadcasters should be an integral part of the campaign along with household heads, the majority of who are women, to use TV to their advantage to communicate with wisdom. |
