We break the silence to say STOP sexual violence
Make Music Matter presents the song ‘Freedom’ by The Global Survivor Network – a track that came together at a SEMA retreat, uniting survivors of conflict-related sexual violence from Kenya, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Central African Republic, Mali, Guinea, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Gambia, and South Sudan. MMM Lead Music Producer Georges ‘Jojo’ Mupemba facilitated the collaborative music making.
Organised by the Dr. Denis Mukwege Foundation, the retreat was “an opportunity for unified reflection, strategic discussion, peer learning and provision of support for each other.” It included three days of workshops and launches of the Red Line Initiative Guidebook and the SEMA Art Exhibition titled “We Are Speaking, Are You Listening?” Find out more.
‘Freedom’ is the third release from this collective following the singles ‘Little Bird’ and ‘Solidarity’.
