As Colombia considers a historic ban on female genital mutilation, stories from Indigenous communities shed light on a practice that has long remained hidden https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/world/she-didnt-know-until-the-untold-stories-behind-female-genital-mutilation-in-colombia-jaw2u2pc?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #WomensRights #HumanRights #Colombia #EndViolenceAgainstWomen

@GeofCox @randahl I don't believe this is 'the political right'. I believe that this is people who are powerful, testing just how powerful they are.

I wrote about it six years ago, and I still believe this is fundamentally true.

Today is the International Day for the Elimination Violence Against Women.

It is estimated that about 1 in 3 (30%) women globally experience physical and/ or sexual violence, mostly at the hands of an intimate partner.

Such violence starts alarmingly early, almost 1 in 4 (24%) adolescent girls aged 15-19 who have had an intimate relationship has experienced physical or sexual violence from a partner

In every country and culture, more action is needed to ensure women in all their diversity live a life free of violence and coercion.

Several months ago, we did some user research and design for Women Out West Cumbria, an organisation that helps women who have been abused by their partner. Here is a blog article that we did for International Women's Day that talks about it: https://lnkd.in/eQ43cGhp

🟧 Heute ist #OrangeDay - der Internationale Tag zur Beseitigung von Gewalt gegen Frauen.

🟧 Gewalt gegen Frauen ist immer noch alltäglich. Alleine die Zahlen für Deutschland sind katastrophal:

- Alle zwei Tage wird in Deutschland eine Frau von ihrem (Ex-)Partner getötet

- Täglich gibt es einen Tötungsversuch

- Alle vier Minuten erfährt eine Frau Gewalt durch ihren Partner

🟧 Lasst uns JETZT gemeinsam für eine Welt ohne Gewalt gegen Frauen einstehen.

#OrangeTheWorld #EndViolenceAgainstWomen

Der heutige 25. November ist der Internationale Tag zur Beseitigung von Gewalt gegen Frauen. Die zu diesem Tag gehörende Farbe ist orange, das Motto lautet "Orange the World" genannt, also in etwa "Färbt die Welt orange".
Gewalt gegen Frauen ist eine der am weitesten verbreiteten Menschenrechtsverletzungen. Die Vereinten Nationen gehen davon aus, dass mehr als 35% aller Frauen mindestens einmal im Leben Opfer sexueller oder physischer Gewalt sind. ->

UGA faces new calls for campus safety measures after nursing student's death

Laken Riley, 22, was killed during a jog on the University of Georgia campus. Her slaying has put a spotlight on security initiatives amid a spate of national campus violence.

#CampusViolence #EndViolenceAgainstWomen

Intentions & willingness, both are shamefully lacking. As of now, all perpetrators must be given capital punishment, case must be taken in fast track court & justice must be ensured for what she's suffered.

As a Member of the European Parliament, I recently spoke about the need for action against men's violence against women and girls. Unfortunately, the Swedish government's lack of leadership on this issue was highlighted during a recent debate.

I asked the Swedish Prime Minister, Ulf Kristersson, if his government would actively work to export Sweden's successful sex purchase laws and consent laws, as I and my colleague Frances Fitzgerald have proposed. However, the Prime Minister failed to provide a clear answer.

In a time of global challenges, it is unacceptable for any government to lack leadership on issues such as women's rights. The Swedish government's decision to abandon its feminist foreign policy and cut aid to those in need is not only shocking, but also harmful.

As a leader in the EU, it is important that Sweden prioritizes a safer and more equal Europe. However, by staying silent on the regimes in Iran and Turkey, the Swedish government is failing to live up to this responsibility.

I urge the Prime Minister and the Swedish government to take action on these issues and work towards creating a better future for all. #WomenRightsAreHumanRights #EndViolenceAgainstWomen #SwedenMustDoMore #LeadershipInAction

Proposals:

1. The Swedish government should actively work to export Sweden's successful sex purchase laws and consent laws to other countries.
2. The Swedish government should prioritize women's rights and take a stronger stance against regimes that violate these rights, such as Iran and Turkey.
3. The Swedish government should increase its aid to those in need, rather than cutting it.
4. The EU should prioritize women's rights and take a stronger stance against violence against women and girls.
