33% of women in sub-Saharan Africa face violence. One year. One region. One crisis. Break the cycle.

🌸Day 2 in Botswana was so beautiful.🌸

✨Our second round of Rethink and Reenergize sessions hosted by W.A.R (Botswana) has been an essential healing space for us and our movement. We are so thankful to our partners #UNTF, and everyone who participated, facilitated and shared in these sessions. 🌼

Solidarity is showing up. It is understanding, connecting and advocating around struggles that may not always look like our own, but which cause harm to vulnerable communities and peoples. A just feminist future is possible only when we move as a collective and speak up up for each other.

Ending digital violence requires everyone to be involved.

📢Report violent behaviours you witness, even if you or someone you know was not the direct victim.
📢Practice and respect consent in your digital interactions.

It is Monday, and the work of ending violence against women and girls everywhere continues! This is a reminder that women who suffer multiple forms of discrimination face a higher risk of violence and are more vulnerable to its consequences.

“Love is a combination of care, commitment, knowledge, responsibility, respect and trust.” - bell hooks

All these come together to shape our movements as feminists and activists working to end violence. It is out of love, and an optimism for the future, that we work to dismantle harmful systems.
