Many survivors struggle to heal or access justice because they don’t know what steps to take after being sexually violated. Remember, it is not your fault, and you deserve support. Knowing what to do can help protect your health, preserve evidence, and guide you toward justice. Here are steps to take that will prioritize your safety, health and access to justice. #RestoringDignity

Delayed or dismissive actions can cause further trauma and deny survivors the justice they deserve. 2/2

With support from the Scottish Government and @oxfaminKE we provided psychosocial support to 155 survivors and medical care to 60 during the March 2024 Nairobi floods. Mirabel, not her real name, was displaced and sexually violated after seeking refuge.

We are glad to have participated in the review of the shadow report on the 12 critical areas of concern convened by @SDGsKenyaForum This meeting focused on discussing and refining the draft of the CSO shadow report on Beijing +30. It also served as a follow-up to the Women’s Rights Organization meeting held in November. #Beijing30
🤔Where were you in 1995? 🔹 That year, the world committed to a bold vision for gender equality with the Beijing Declaration & Platform for Action. ⚡️30 years later, we ask: Are we making progress? Join us as we review the shadow report on the 12 critical areas of concern.

According to a United Nations report, at least 165 women were raped and killed during a prison break at Muzenze Prison in Goma, Congo. This inhumane act is part of a broader pattern of sexual violence being used as a weapon of war in eastern Congo. The world must not turn a blind eye while women’s bodies are used as battlegrounds in war. We call upon the @_AfricanUnion , @UN and world leaders to urgently intervene and protect the people of Congo. An injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. #HumanRightsMatter

Every girl deserves to grow up safe, empowered and free from harm. As we commemorate the International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation, we remind everyone that FGM IS NOT A CULTURE, it is a human rights abuse that must end. #Unite2EndFGM #EndFGM
