16 Days Of Activism Against Gender-based Violence
Today marks the beginning of the United Nations’ 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence. This year's edition aims to increase the visibility of informal women workers and the lack of economic opportunities that lead to poverty. The gender pay gap and subordinate positions in the job market are the challenges that women face.
International Press Freedom Day 2020
The Coalition’s Press Freedom Day Campaign 2020 looked at the challenges that women journalists are facing around the world every day. First quarter of 2020 hasn’t been easy for women journalists. We documented almost 150 threats and intimidations between January and April alone, including deportations, imprisonments and deaths. More and more women journalists were also arrested, faced legal persecution, verbally harassed, abused and threatened online, as well as physically harassed, attacked and assaulted while working in precarious conditions.
