- Challenge hate by sharing messages of tolerance.
- Support people targeted by hate speech.

RT & spread love.

Afghan women and girls remain the country’s greatest untapped resource.
There cannot be durable peace or stability in #Afghanistan if women are banned from equally participating in the life of their country.

Happy Birthday Amal Clooney!
Thank you for your voice, activism and efforts as an International Human Rights Lawyer to bring justice to survivors of sexual violence.

@UN_Women
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.

Reality check: No country has achieved gender equality, nor is close to it.
During the 76th #UNGA let’s put women’s rights on the agenda and ask world leaders to step it up for women and girls.

Today marks four years since the passing of former @UN Secretary-General #KofiAnnan.
We remember him as a gender equality advocate who fought fiercely for human rights.
His legacy lives on.

Let's end restrictive, traditional gender roles that create and sustain gender inequalities.
It's high time to break the stereotypes.

Afghan women are refusing to accept
❌ Refusing to accept systemic exclusion from public life.
❌ Refusing to accept restrictions on their right to learn and to work.
❌ Refusing to accept being silenced.

It's a great day to stand up for women's rights ✊
Will you stand with us?

@UN_Women
Without feminist leader Hansa Mehta, we would likely be speaking of the Universal Declaration of the Rights of Men rather than of Human Rights.
She succeeded in changing “All men are born free and equal” in Article 1 of the UDHR to “All human beings are born free and equal”.

@UN_Women
45% of women can’t make their own decisions about their sexual and reproductive health. 🤯
#ActForEqual by speaking up for women's bodily autonomy!
