Abstract
Unveiling the Shadows: A Systematic Literature Review on Understanding Femicide in South Africa and its Socio-Cultural Determinants
THEME 3: Strategies toward the normative development of society
SUB 3.1 Promoting egalitarianism in intimate and other relationships as responses to Gender-based violence and femicide
Oral Presentation
Femicide, the intentional killing of women based on their gender, is a pervasive and disturbing issue globally, with South Africa experiencing alarmingly high rates. This SLR examines the socio-cultural determinants of femicide in South Africa. Through a comprehensive analysis of scholarly articles, reports, and studies, the review aims to enhance our understanding of the multifaceted nature of femicide in the country. Taking a socio-cultural lens, the review investigates factors contributing to femicide, such as gender norms, patriarchy, cultural beliefs, and practices. The review explores the intersections of gender, violence, and culture, analysing the consequences of femicide on victims, families, communities, and society. Identifying gaps in knowledge, the review emphasizes the need for further research and policy development. It concludes by providing recommendations for interventions, policies, and strategies to prevent and address femicide in South Africa. This review serves as a crucial tool to, promote dialogue, and guide evidence-based interventions against femicide
