Today, we are proud to publish our 2024 Open Letter on #WPS on behalf of 628 civil society signatories from 110 countries. Read our collective calls for the #UNSC & Member States to protect women's rights in conflicts and crises around the world:

#Palestinian women and girls in #Gaza face unprecedented levels of reproductive violence due to Israel’s blockade of aid and systematic destruction of sexual and reproductive health infrastructure.

For decades, the #Myanmar military has used #CRSV against women, girls and LGBTIQ people as a tactic of war—all with near total impunity. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

In #Sudan, #CRSV against women and girls has become a hallmark of the war, enabled by the absence of civilian protection and the illegal flow of arms. #KeepEyesOnSudan

In eastern #DRC, ongoing violence and mass displacement have put women and girls at ever greater risk of #CRSV, while severe funding cuts and limited humanitarian access have left survivors with little access to essential services.

From #DRC to #Sudan, #Myanmar to #Gaza, wars are waged on the bodies of women and girls. At the #UNSC Open Debate on #CRSV, we call on Member States to defend women's human rights and demand an end to all forms of #SGBV. Read our full recs:

Powerful last words to the #UNSC from Jackline Nasiwa: “The people of #SouthSudan cannot afford another senseless and destructive war.”. Read her full statement here:

At the #UNSC, Jackline Nasiwa underlines how essential the UN is for #SouthSudan at this particular moment and calls on the Council to renew the #UNMISS mandate in full to ensure the protection of civilians, particularly women and girls.

In #SouthSudan, women bear the heaviest burden of conflict and instability, yet are largely excluded from peace and political processes. "Any political and peace processes must be inclusive of women and civil society…beyond the 35% quota," Jackline Nasiwa tells the #UNSC.

The conflict in #SouthSudan is worsening a dire humanitarian crisis, with devastating impacts for civilians—particularly women and girls, Jackline Nasiwa tells the #UNSC.

As the #UNSC considers the UNMISS mandate renewal this month, we urge Council members to prioritize women's rights in #SouthSudan.
