Did you know that a staggering 736 million women have faced physical or sexual violence from intimate partners, non-partners, or both at least once in their lifetime? This is a global crisis that demands our attention and action. #16DaysOfActivism2024 #EndGBV #16Days

Trauma can lead to aggressive behaviors, masking deeper emotional wounds. Let’s seek to understand rather than judge. #MentalHealthMatters #UnderstandingTrauma #Womenforpeace
Trauma can cause people to feel out of place in their community, but healing is possible through support and understanding. #CommunityHealing #TraumaRecovery #Womenforpeace

Imagine a world where survivors are believed and supported and where no system or person shelters abuse or abusers. Let's build that world. #BreakTheSilence #SAAM2024 #SupportSurvivors

#SexualAssaultAwarenessMonth Rape culture refers to social norms that seek to normalize and undermine sexual abuse and the attitudes that enable it. When we express entitlement over women’s bodies simply due to how they choose to present themselves, we are engaging in rape culture. When we attempt to police women’s bodies, we are engaging in rape culture. We must work together to combat invasive attitudes that attack women’s autonomy and excuse their violation. Her body, Her choice! ✊
