Summary edit

Description

Over the years Welcome moved up the ranks in the Numbers Gang. The tattoos reflect this process – each star on his shoulder represents an area of expertise. Four stars on each shoulder make you a "Colonel".

Background

Welcome Witboi transformed his life to become a women’s rights champion after taking part in a UK aid supported prisons project with Sonke Gender Justice. Their One Man Can campaign tackles HIV and gender-based violence.

In March 2013 the United Nation's Commission on the Status of Women will meet to discuss how to prevent all forms of violence against women and girls.

This International Women's Day, help demand action by sending a message to global leaders that it's time to put a stop to this worldwide injustice.

UK aid is working in 21 countries to address physical and sexual violence against women and girls and will be supporting 10 million women and girls with improved access to security and justice services by 2015.
