The root causes of harmful practices and other gender-based violence are related to culture, lack of education, and poverty. #NoExcuse. It's time to act to end violence against women and girls around the world! #16days#OrangeLeMonde@soscvWCNA
What is #16daysofactivism against Gender-Based Violence?
It is a campaign to prevent and end violence against women and girls, which is the most pervasive human rights violation worldwide. There is #noexcuse - let’s end and prevent violence now!
In honor of World Children's Day, SOS youth are participating in the National Youth Forum organized by the Government of Guinea-Bissau in partnership with SOS Children's Villages and UNICEF for the development of a strategic vision for child-centered development in Guinea-Bissau.
This #worldchildrensday, let’s make sure that each child has the bonds and support they need to become their strongest selves. Ensuring that no child grows up alone and in caring and supportive homes is the key to breaking the cycle of intergenerational disadvantage. #childrights
