For many survivors of sexual & gender-based violence in #Tigray, accessing care remains difficult due to stigma, insecurity & limited support services.
To help address this gap, Harambee Collective, in partnership with @TigrayRHB, is proud to launch a new free GBV helpline.
⚠️ More than 700 women die every day from preventable causes related to pregnancy and childbirth.

& we’re not stopping. Alongside our partners, we’re advancing additional shipments & solar-powered solutions for hospitals & schools ㅡbecause systems under pressure need resilient, sustainable support.
Over the past few months, together with our partners, we delivered a second container of critical medical support to #Tigray now supporting 33 facilities, restoring or newly enabling surgical services in 14, & helping equip 5,000+ health workers to better serve their communities.
This work reflects a shared commitment to supporting a health system under immense strain from the #TigrayGenocide & overlapping crises so people can access quality care when they need it most.
Honored to join @RefugeesIntl on Capitol Hill today, standing with powerful Sudanese advocates, including @EmiThePoet, to mark 3 years of conflict in #Sudan. Their voices remind us that peace cannot exist without justice & that urgent global action must prioritize accountability.
Join @RefugeesIntl tomorrow at 2 PM ET at the Russell Senate Office Building in Washington, DC to hear from Sen. @MarkWarner and Sudanese voices on what must happen to change the course.

April 15 marks three years since the ongoing conflict erupted in Sudan. Millions remain displaced, facing hunger, violence and limited access to lifesaving aid as the global response continues to fall short.
Our joint submission (@GemTigray, @HarambeeOrg & Seret Civil Society) is now published by @UNHumanRights.
It highlights how genocidal war, displacement & inequality are driving child & forced marriage in #Tigray—and calls for urgent action.

#Tigray: “On this International Women’s Day, we stand in solidarity with the women & girls of Tigray, whose lives continue to be shaped by
genocidal war, forced displacement & economic hardship.” a coalition of rights advocates and CSOs said in a statement issued marking March 8.
Happy #InternationalWomensDay to the women of Tigray, who carry the weight of war on their shoulders yet bloom with courage, hope & love. We honor you & long for a day when survival does not demand strength.

Join @RefugeesIntl experts, refugee leaders, and mutual aid leaders to discuss what these cuts have meant in local communities: what they have witnessed firsthand, how they have adapted to keep meeting urgent needs, and what must happen now to reduce harm.

Tensions in #Tigray, #Ethiopia are rising, and there is a real risk that conflict could erupt again—and with it the threat of renewed sexual violence.
During the war that ended three years ago, women in Tigray experienced sexual violence on a staggering scale.
