.@Dines4Dales, this #InternationalWomensDay lets make #PublicSexualHarassment a #CrimeNotCompliment.

Along with @PlanUK and @OurStreetsNow I’m calling on you to protect girls by strengthening the Protection from Sex-Based Harassment in Public Bill https://t.co/DPJDJcJ5md

[Plan International UK @PlanUK]

Ever had a conversation like this?

Situations like this happen far too often and girls remain unsafe and unprotected in public spaces. Something needs to change!

95% of UK parents support making #PublicSexualHarassment a crime 👏

[Gemma Day @GemGemDay]

.@PlanUK, @OurStreetsNow & over half a million people are demanding a law that finally makes all forms of #PublicSexualHarassment illegal

@SuellaBraverman, you have the power to create that change. Act now to protect girls and ensure that harassment is a #CrimeNotCompliment.

[Plan International USA @PlanUSA]

We are deeply disappointed about the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade — the power to make these deeply personal decisions belongs in the hands of girls and women and the people they trust, not a judge or legislator. #RoeVWade #Plan4girls

This is brilliant news! 👏

@Telegraph are reporting that the Law Commission are set to back our call to make public sexual harassment a crime.

Making this behaviour a crime will send a clear message that it is not acceptable in our society.

This is “what works” when tackling public sexual harassment as well as legislative change

[Gemma Day @GemGemDay]

Girls as young as 10 are being harassed, followed and touched but there’s no single law that makes it a crime. This week, the Government launch their strategy to protect women and girls. Sign if you believe #publicsexualharassment is a #CrimeNotCompliment https://t.co/fOVM23qzBq

[Plan International UK @PlanUK]

UK Parliament has just voted in favour of the Government’s plans to cut overseas #UKaid to 0.5% of GNI.

This is a further catastrophe for the world’s most vulnerable children - especially girls - at a time when they most need our support.

Our SRHR Adviser, @bekkyAshmore spoke on @BBCNews this morning to discuss the Government’s 'shameful' decision to cut Sexual & Reproductive Health and Rights services by 85%.

This will result in the deaths of tens of thousands of women & girls during pregnancy & childbirth.

[Plan International UK @PlanUK]

"It is impossible to justify why these cuts are being made now in the middle of a global pandemic when we know that the pandemic has to be addressed all around the world.

We’re reducing the health services all around the world and it’s not the right thing to do." @rose_girlpower

[Plan International UK @PlanUK]

We welcome the news that the Government has reopened its consultation on violence against women and girls.
We encourage everyone to fill in the survey and ask for public sexual harassment to be made a crime #CrimeNotCompliment @OurStreetsNow

[Rosie Benson @RosieChloe]

'As one girl told us, you can be fined for dropping litter in the UK, but not for harassing a woman or girl in public. This cannot be right.' Join @rose_girlpower @PlanUK and @OurStreetsNow to make harassment a #CrimeNotCompliment

[Plan International UK @PlanUK]

All women and girls have the right to feel safe in public spaces, yet they still continue to face harassment every day.

They’re being followed, shouted at, touched and groped – and it needs to stop! #CrimeNotCompliment

[Plan International UK @PlanUK]

This #InternationalWomensDay, we:

✔ Stand with girls

✔ Take their lead

✔ Champion their rights

At Plan International we #ChooseToChallenge gender inequality and discrimination – for a future where all girls are heard, and their potential fulfilled.

Reducing funding is a death sentence, says UN secretary general António Guterres. Agree. We must keep our commitment to UK Aid.
