as a pro-feminist i just wanted to remind you all that...women and girls suffer disproportionately from violence - both in peace and in war, at the hands of the state, the community and the family...
that a life free from violence is a basic human right...
from the home to the conflict zone, violence against women must stop...and that amnesty international's campaign to stop violence against women:
- pushes for the implementation of existing laws that guarantee access to justice and services for women subjected to violence including rape and other forms of sexual violence
- calls for new laws to be enacted that will protect women's human rights
- demands an end to laws that discriminate against women
- urges the ending of violence against women perpetrated by a state and its agents
- works to empower women
peace out <3>
