Gabon: a short film competition to denounce violence against women

Gabon's First Lady, Sylvia Bongo Odimba, has launched a short film competition through her foundation to raise awareness of violence against women.

Organized by the Sylvia Bongo Ondimba Foundation for the Family, the "Coup 2 cœur" competition invites participants to create a 5-minute production denouncing violence against girls and women. A jury will then select three winners for their creativity. Three prizes will be awarded:

  • Jury Prize (5 million CFA francs)
  • "Coup 2 cœur" Prize (3 million CFA francs)
  • Audience Award (2 million CFA francs)

The prizes will be awarded on Monday, November 25, 2019, on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
