Conflict heightens the risk of human trafficking and uses violence against women as a weapon of war.

In 2023, more than 3,600 cases of sexual violence were committed in conflict settings globally.

95% of the cases involved women and girls.

We need to increase the number of women leaders in business, finance, banks & finance ministries. This can help drive investments in policies & programmes that respond to women & girls’ needs.

Hey @RedSox 👎🏼 on the yellow. 😑 #lifelongfan

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Besides fueling conflict, sexual violence also severely impacts the prospects for lasting peace.

Women and girls must be protected.

Abuse must be investigated.

And gender equality must be central to all efforts to protect & assist people affected by conflict.

75% of #HumanTrafficking victims are advertised online. With #tech playing an increasing role in the #grooming and controlling of #SexTrafficking victims, it is crucial for digital platforms to take a #StandForHer and join the fight to end trafficking. https://t.co/pECpk472pq

Globally, women experience higher rates of depression than men, often due to sociocultural roles and expectations and inequitable power dynamics. May is Mental Health Awareness Month. #breakthestigma #educationforall #genderequality #womensempowerment #girlpower #mgiuganda
