Should we stop calling rape victims 'survivors'? "...there are cultural narratives about rape that I had unthinkingly accepted: that a woman should either be permanently and irreparably damaged by an attack in order to have the seriousness...

Reported Child Sexual abuse online has increased in the #EU to a shocking degree. Today I proposed how to better protect children. Online companies should detect, remove, report and refer abusive content. #securityunion

This woman. More strong leaders like this! “This harm ... was not just directed at me. When you do that to any woman, what Mr. Yoho did was give permission to other men to do that to his daughters. . . . I am here to say, that is not acceptable.” @AOC

Gender inequality harms everyone because it prevents us from benefitting from the intelligence & experience of all of humanity. As a proud feminist, I have made gender equality a top priority & gender parity a reality in top @UN jobs. I urge all leaders to do the same.

Positive masculinity emphasizes values of equality, respect and dignity for all. #MenAtWork4GE is aimed at triggering countrywide action to engage, sensitize and highlight responsibilities men have to unlearn social norms and eliminate all forms of discrimination & violence.

@RefugeCharity says; In June, calls and contacts were nearly 80% higher than usual And as restrictions ease, there is a surge in women seeking refuge places to escape their abusers. #lockdown has meant non stop fear for far to many people.

No other crime is so poorly prosecuted. The consequences for survivors is devastating. What message does this send to women and girls? We call on the govt. to get the CPS to do their job and fully fund specialist women’s services. Will you speak out? #VAWG

Check out the decision tree that helps e.g. organizations with #VAW programmes to decide when and how to best collect data on women’s experiences of violence and their access and use of relevant services during #COVID19: https://t.co/u6e2kxu76R

Working on it 🧡💪🏼 Bringing Governments and NGOs together in one plattform for societal protection of inhabitants. We will redistribute profits to help communities in need where support is limited. #EuropeanCouncil #euvsvirus #euroroparåd #domesticviolence
@abacat923 @XTinaTaft @nitut1 @realamberheard @MPubliques The good people should just do a #Nonprofit platform that cares about people like @BrightAct_EU @act_bright style.... No one owns the assets. It's just a donation to society, so no investors or equity. It's the best for people... we know... yes... Wonderful TPTB (SV fan lingo)
