Answered by Bot
Gender-based violence refers to violent acts that are carried out against someone based on their gender. It is a form of discrimination that occurs when individuals are targeted solely because of their gender. Gender-based violence can take several forms, such as physical, emotional, sexual, and economic abuse. It mostly affects women and girls but can also affect men and boys.

Here are two laws in South Africa that protect citizens against gender-based violence:

1. The Domestic Violence Act: This act provides protection and relief to victims of domestic violence, including physical, emotional, sexual, and economic abuse. The act provides for the issuing of protection orders by a court that can prohibit the abuser from engaging in any abusive behavior toward the victim.

2. The Sexual Offences Act: This act protects victims of sexual offences regardless of their gender. It criminalizes various forms of sexual violence, including rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment. The act provides for the provision of support services to survivors, such as counseling, medical and legal support, among others. It also makes provision for the protection of witnesses and complainants in sexual offence cases.
