BREAK THE SILENCE| WIN AGAINST VIOLENCE Supporting & empowering women victims of SGBV in Sri Lanka and advocating the advancement of rights and equality.
Joined December 2020
The increasing women's rights violations reported in #SriLanka indicate a questionable decline in respect and recognition of basic human rights. The justifications for abuse, villification of women's rights and violence perpetrated by the police are shocking! #WomensRights #LKA

This month, as we raise awareness on #DomesticViolence, it’s important to recognise the signs of abuse - which aren’t always physical. Any form of DV is never the victim’s fault. #ShanthiMaargam: 071 7639898 (8am - 10pm daily) @WINsrilanka: 077 567 65 55 (24h emergency line)

කාන්තා හා ළමා ආරක්ෂාව යනු රටක් තුල අනිවාර්යය වශයෙන් තිබිය යුතු අවශ්යතාවයකි. මෙම සුරක්ෂිත භාවය රැකගැනීම රටේ සියලුම දෙනාගේ වගකීමක් වේ. වර්තමානය වන විට මේ සඳහා ඉතා සාර්ථක ලෙස පසුබිම සකස් කිරීමට අප...

Many women and girls have no knowledge of her rights and the laws that she can avail herself of for her protection. Legal awareness and awareness of available services are essential for women and girls. #lka #COVID19SL #DomesticAbuse #16Days #BreakTheSilence
A #woman needs to have her story heard, needs to have a space to use her voice. There are many who are still in the dark about laws regarding #VAW. We must work at a national level to ensure these services reach those furthest behind"- @mariamwadood, @WomenSlK
