The dignity kits and clean delivery kits are live saving. About 180 babies are born each day and 690.000 women and girls of reproductive age have no access to the products they need. @UNFPALondon @UNFPA_SCMU @UNFPA_Supplies

“I stand before you as a proud descendent of enslaved people who resisted slavery & racism.”

At UNGA’s #RememberSlavery event this week, activist & Martin Luther King Jr.'s granddaughter Yolanda Renee King urged everyone to #FightRacism & discrimination. https://t.co/ByKbydPPDx

[Remember Slavery @rememberslavery]

Congrats to @UNFPA & artist Donovan Nelson on their powerful new "Ibo Landing" exhibit at the UN, honoring Africans who fought slavery. Their resistance was part of a wider quest for liberty - one that won't end until we defeat racism. Today and every day, we remember them.

Astounding portrayal by artist Donovan Nelson of the self-emancipation protest by enslaved Africans at Igbo Landing in 1803 off US Georgia coast.

The proposed repeal of the ban on female genital mutilation (FGM) in The Gambia is a tremendous setback in the global fight against gender-based violence. 

We stand in solidarity with survivors, activists and all working tirelessly to end this human rights violation.

#EndFGM

[Dawn Minott @DawnMinott]

The #CSW68 Agreed Conclusions pivotal in advancing #GenderEquality globally. Grateful for opportunity to participate in key events led by @UNFPA with sister agencies and partners. Together, we're working toward ending #GBV and empowering women and young people worldwide.

Only 4 women have served as Presidents of the UN General Assembly. It’s time for gender rotation alongside geographic rotation for the GA Presidency, promoting gender equality at the UNGA. #GenderEquality #UNGA #PushForward @UNFPA @UN_Women #CSW68

@MisionONUCol @CarmenMonton @EspOEA @AmandaManyame @FrenteSororidad @MESECVI “Guidance on law reform being is developed. #TFGBV is a human rights violation so reforms must be survivor centred and supporting access to justice and accountability.” - @DawnMinott of @UNFPA

[Dawn Minott @DawnMinott]

Tech facilitated GBV a clear violation of human rights, with survivors at the forefront of @UNFPA focus. Let's prioritize legal approaches over moral judgments to protect all individuals from gender-based violence. #HumanRights #EndGBV #CSW68
