❌That’s normal
❌It happens to everyone
❌It’s because you’re pretty
❌What were you wearing?

These are not an excuse for sexual harassment.

There is NO excuse for sexual harassment.

Join us to reverse the laws and demand justice for survivors.

Media has a fundamental role to play to stop rape culture.

During the #16Days of activism to stop gender-based violence, let’s change the narrative that places blame on victims. http://bit.ly/2YloCqX via @UN_Women

Sexual violence cannot prevail as a weapon of war and armed conflict. Hear @NadiaMuradBasee's appeal to #EndRapeInWar.

In the interest of being just and fair, monogamy is definitely better than polygamy.

“I am you, I am a thousand rebels.
I sing for us all, to make traditions fall,
Can you hear my screams?
For you and I to breathe new life”

Such a powerful song & video by @AbaadMENA, for sexual assault survivors + #Lebanon women protesters.

Misogyny and sexism continue to spur online abuse, and when women are targeted online, it's likely to be linked to offline violence.

It's on all of us to create safe spaces online & IRL. #orangetheworld #16days

@WHOSEARO Violence against 👩🏻👩🏿🧕 is a major public health and human rights issue, with intimate partner violence and sexual violence among the most pervasive forms.

Media has a fundamental role to play to stop rape culture.

📰 Let’s flip the narrative that places blame on victims and use the power of language in service of survivors, not perpetrators.

#orangetheworld #16days

Safe spaces are places where women and girls can safely receive info and access services that promote
healing and empowerment.

See the 16 minimum standards of care that must be met to assist survivors of gender-based violence in emergencies: http://unf.pa/ms

We see you.
We hear you.
We believe you.

You are safe here.

As #COP25 begins tomorrow, read how Asian climate emergency declarations would be rendered empty and void of meaning if countries get a free pass from fulfilling their commitments.
