Violence against women and girls is a human rights violation that’s been perpetuated for decades.
It’s pervasive, but it’s not inevitable, unless we stay silent.
Speak out, #OrangeTheWorld & break the cycle of abuse during #16Days of Activism!

Gender-based violence is the most pervasive human rights violation, but it is neither natural, nor inevitable.
It can and must be prevented.
Let's start by believing survivors and taking action during the #16Days and every day: unwo.men/O0l950GVrZh #OrangeTheWorld

私「今日は国連の女性に対する暴力撤廃デーだよ」
息子「女性に？ぼく全然関係ないやん」
「女性に暴力を振るう人がいるからそういう日があるんだよ」
「それは男だから…関係あるね」
関係あるよ。

Survivors of violence deserve justice, and nothing less. This #16Days of Activism, #OrangeTheWorld to show you stand with them.

@UN_Women
Every time a woman speaks up about her experience of sexual violence and she’s not believed, the cycle of abuse continues.
Every time you hear a survivor’s story:
1-Listen.
2-Believe.
3-Support.

Speak up when someone crosses the line. Every time, everywhere. Let’s not allow silence to be compliance to a culture of violence. #OrangeTheWorld #16Days

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

Women and girls’ freedom of movement and resources to protect them from gender-based violence in Afghanistan are at risk.

Less than 1 in 10 women who seek help after experiencing violence turn to the police.
We are committed to advancing work on gender-responsive policing globally, ensuring all officers are professionally trained to support the communities they protect. #16Days #OrangeTheWorld

Stop teaching girls that when a boy is mean to her, it means he likes her.
Stop teaching boys that being a man means asserting power.

When a survivor speaks up, don’t say, “Why didn’t she leave?”
Say:
We hear you.
We see you.
We believe you.
You are safe here.

Female genital mutilation is a form of violence against women.
It is a human rights abuse.
It leaves scars that last a lifetime.
