Stop Incest Campaign

The Issue

Incest refers to sexual encounters between blood relatives where a parent, grandfather, uncle, cousin, or brother has a sexual relationship with a woman who is kin to them.

Fathers, who are supposed to be a daughter's protector, are the most frequent incest offenders, frequently committing the horrible crime at home. Victims suffer in silence as society has turned a blind eye. Incest is a discussion that many shy away from.

A successful campaign will bring about a newfound optimism and vigor to help raise awareness about incest and lessen the stigma attached to it. Additionally, it might imply greater resources and assistance for incest survivors and their families resulting in increased public education campaigns and availability of resources for people impacted by incest.

By keeping Incest a secret, the public becomes unaware of it, and survivors are unable to get the assistance they require. As a result, the stigma associated with incest persists and is a barrier to survivors because neither public policy nor legislation addresses the problem.

Incest can have detrimental physical and psychological effects on people who are involved and any resulting offspring. Close familial relationships considerably raise the likelihood of genetic abnormalities, resulting in feelings of guilt, humiliation, and uncertainty for all parties involved. Incestuous relationships can also lead to exploitation and abuse since they frequently entail power inequalities. By taking immediate action to stop incest, we can contribute to the prevention of physical, psychological, and emotional harm and safeguard the rights of those involved. 

Sign this petition and join us in stopping Incest and ensuring that the victims get the necessary help that they need.
