❌ Because women are most likely to be murdered in their own home.
❌ Because every day, 137 women are killed by a member of their family worldwide.

It's time the world recognized their contributions.

A to-do list for everyone.

@UN_Women
Women need freedom from:
- gender roles
- gender expectations
- patriarchal notions
- discriminatory laws
...and many other forms of intersecting inequalities.
798
@UN_Women
Speak up when someone says sexist words.
Let’s not allow silence to be compliance to the patriarchy and "locker room talk".
799
@UN_Women
Women politicians, rights defenders, leaders of women’s organizations and feminist groups are targeted online and offline.
Let's make social media and online spaces safer.

#Trans people, particularly trans women, are more likely to experience hate-based violence than their peers, facing serious risks to their safety in public spaces. Streets should be safe for everyone – trans women included! 🏳️⚧️ #TransDayOfRemembrance #TDOR @free_equal
