Egg-laying hens are suffering in cruel cages. It’s time to hold corporations accountable for this abuse!
Join me in signing the petition calling on corporations to eliminate cages!

Anniversaries are strange things. I guess as the years go by the anniversary of Jo’s death will become more significant but our family feels our loss everyday& today just feels like another day with our family incomplete & Jo’s joyful presence missing. Life still feels muted.

The sun is rising and so are we. Arrived in #Vancouver for #WD2019 to put the status quo on notice. A gender equal world is a better world for all. And we will not go backward.

[Katja Iversen @Katja_Iversen]

At the Women Deliver 2019 Conference we will redefine power and show:

✅ how we can all use power for good
✅ the power of #GenderEquality,
✅ that a gender equal world is healthier, wealthier and more peaceful.

Listen! If we are to end sexual and gender based violence in #humanitarian emergencies we need to listen to, involve and invest in the women focused organizations on the frontline. They know, act and lift. #Humanitarian4Her #EndSGBVOslo

At #WHA72, we’re pushing for health financing that reduces gender inequities. Too often girls and women don’t get the services they need due to gender-related biases, norms, and financial barriers. #GenderUHC
