Boss Babes of South Africa joins Women for Change in the fight against GBV

In its continued mission to combat the national crisis of Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and Femicide, influential digital movement Boss Babes of South Africa is amplifying its voice by standing firmly with Women for Change and other leading civil society organisations. As Women for Change drives national action through high-impact campaigns like the G20 Women’s Shutdown, Boss Babes of South Africa, founded by Kovini Moodley, reinforces this urgent call for systemic reform and heightened accountability. This alignment signals an escalated, unified fight against the devastating impact of GBV across all sectors of South African society.

Boss Babes of South Africa calls on civil society, private sector leaders, and citizens across the nation to stand with unwavering commitment. This fight requires sustained action, shared responsibility, and genuine compassion. It is a collective responsibility that demands more than mere awareness.

“Our fight is only as powerful as the community that chooses to stand behind it. Every act of solidarity, every message shared, and every individual who speaks out contributes to the collective force required for real change. Every woman who shares her story, every ally who speaks up, and every community that stands united moves South Africa closer to real and lasting change,” shares Moodley.

Boss Babes of South Africa asserts that GBV and Femicide are not merely isolated acts but direct consequences of deep-seated structural inequality and profound threats to South Africa’s social cohesion and economic stability. The urgency of this crisis is staggering. Just this year alone, 40,035 women were raped, placing the country 4th globally in absolute numbers.

As an award-winning Risk Expert and Chartered Accountant SA, Moodley is leveraging her professional insight to expose and combat this structural and emotional abuse pervasive in corporate environments.

Drawing on her own lived experience of workplace intimidation after raising an ethical concern, Moodley stresses a core problem. Retaliation against those who speak out remains alarmingly common and often normalized.

Boss Babes of South Africa is determined to use its platform to support women enduring Corporate GBV, intending to initiate collaborations with leading labour experts, psychologists, and psychiatrists. This multi-disciplinary approach will provide targeted support to victims and transform painful experiences into actionable lessons for young professionals navigating challenging environments.

To generate mass awareness and accountability in the workplace, Moodley is preparing to launch a documentary on her experiences titled Corporate GBV. The film aims to serve as a stark national reminder regarding the misuse of power, compliance failures, and toxic conduct relatable to countless women in Corporate South Africa.

“Workplaces must evolve into psychologically safe spaces where ethical concerns and diverse viewpoints are welcomed without fear of intimidation,” Moodley adds. She stresses that in 2025 and beyond, structural and cultural reform is urgently needed, and the leadership tone remains the decisive factor in shaping healthy, accountable corporate environments.

Boss Babes team and collaborative partners will be lending their unwavering support to the Women for Change campaign on 21 November 2025.
