BYKU 2024

BYKU known as the Before Your Kill Us night walk takes place on the first Thursday of December as part of 16 days of activism against GBV.

#FunkItImWalking established the Before You Kill Us night walk to bring attention to the human cost of GBV.

#FunkItImWalking aims to make it safe enough for a woman to walk at any time of day in any condition by enabling business that enhances community safety. Through our work, we have enabled the establishment of Soweto Night Out, curated night tourism experiences.

A Soweto Night Out can also be booked at any time of the year with 4 different tours, to tour groups of 12 or more.

Through our night tourism we perform the economic possibilities of safety and have been embraced by communities all over Soweto who now play an active role in ensuring community safety while also activating new income streams for themselves.

In commemoration of 16 days of activism against GBV, we host the Before You Kill Us Soweto Night Out.

Soweto attracts over 300 000 tourists per annum, a number that we aim to doubled through our vibrant night tourism offering, Soweto Night Out.

The night tour includes a visit the Credo Mutwa's Kwakhaya Lendaba, the June 16 Memorial Museum and dinner at trendy Native Rebels in Jabavu.
