The women and girls trapped in Rafah with nowhere safe to go have already been living the unimaginable. An escalation would be catastrophic and must be prevented. We need an immediate ceasefire. All hostages must be released. The people of #Gaza need peace.

Women’s leadership is vital to climate action. This is why we are working with women in Colombia's Pacific coast to recover mangrove forests—a crucial skill passed on from generation to generation. Read our story

The escalating violence in El-Fasher #Sudan is deeply distressing. Dozens of women and girls have already been killed in and around the city. An immediate de-escalation of this dreadful situation is needed. Civilians must be protected.

❌ Female genital mutilation is violence against women. As we continue to advance women’s rights, we are appalled by any attempted rollback of legal protection of those rights. We stand with survivors of FGM and with all women and girls in The Gambia. #EndFGM
