Women’s rights are human rights.

Yet, we are still fighting for equality, safety & control over our own bodies.

Patriarchy won’t dismantle itself—so we will.

No more compromises. No more waiting.

The time for equal rights & real change is NOW!

NO EXCUSES for violence against women & girls.
NO EXCUSES for inaction.
