Achieving gender equality in all facets of life at the earliest has been looked forward as an important goal by the public health stakeholders. Even though, policy makers have been implementing strategies to accomplish the same, a lot needs to be done, especially in low and middle income nations. As a matter of fact, gender-based violence has been acknowledged as one of the most frequent human rights abuses worldwide, which knows no national, ethnic or financial boundaries. In Namibia, an innovative approach has been adopted as different stakeholders have joined their hands to develop high-tech solutions based on web-based applications. To conclude, amidst the ongoing battle against eliminating the social evil of gender-based violence, the use of appropriate science and technology can play a crucial role in reducing its burden significantly.
