When women are included in conflict prevention and resolution, lasting peace has a better chance, but women’s participation in peace processes is systematically low.

Every time a woman speaks up about her experience of sexual violence and she’s not believed, rape culture flourishes.
Every time you hear a survivor’s story:
1-Listen.
2-Believe.
3-Support.

Globally, the gender pay gap stands at 16%, meaning women workers earn an average of 84% of what men earn.
For women of colour, immigrant women and women with children, the difference is even greater.

Women, especially those from poor & marginalized communities are disproportionately affected by #ClimateChange because of their:
-limited access to & control of land & environmental goods
-exclusion from decision-making.
