‼️ Survey ‼️ please share with work colleagues, family & friends 💗💗

Scotlands first Gender-Based Violence Prevalence in Education Survey will be closing soon!

If you are a student, staff member or recent graduate from a Scottish college or university and haven’t already completed this, please spare a few minutes to do so.

This survey will provide essential data to help us better understand the prevalence of GBV in Scotland's further and higher education institutions, contributing to our work as we continue supporting students who are subjected to GBV on their campuses.

Women and girls are disproportionately affected by domestic abuse, sexual violence and other forms of violence committed mainly by men. In Scotland, at least four out of five incidents of domestic abuse recorded by police have a female victim and a male accused. #16Days

Gisèle Pelicot finished taking the stand in mass rape trial against 51 men, and said the "macho, patriarchal society that trivialises rape" must change. What this woman has done for history and women is astounding, her courage unfathomable, no honour is too great. MERCI 💙🤍♥️

What I find particularly depressing is how clearly Trump’s victory shows that men’s sexual violence against women is still widely tolerated, when men with credible allegations of and even convictions for sexual assault can receive such widespread support

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

[Dr. Ann Olivarius @AnnOlivarius]

The criminal justice system can be absolutely brutal for survivors. Gisele has been adamant that she wants journalists to see the videos, "so that shame changes side". I am curious about the reasoning for denying her this. And I continue to be in awe of her courage.

@Gemma_Tea Good luck today- big day! 👏

Factcheck: Maternity pay has existed since 1911 & is essential for women to make informed, supported reproductive choices. It is also currently at a level where 71% of women worry 'a lot' about money during maternity leave and 35% of new mothers skip meals to afford to live.
