Since the outbreak of #COVID19, there has been a spike in reports of violence against women.

#16Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence is an opportunity to make a difference for the better.

Every one of us has a role to play. #OrangeTheWorld

[UN Women @UN_Women]

Dear survivors of violence who are bravely speaking out:

We hear you.
We see you.
We believe you.
You’re not alone.🧡

#OrangeTheWorld #16Days

[UN Women @UN_Women]

Every time a woman speaks up about her experience of sexual violence and she’s not believed, the cycle of abuse continues.

Every time you hear a survivor’s story:

1-Listen.
2-Believe.
3-Support.

Wow! This is showing us how Somaliland women are eager to vote for change. The queue is long, the sun is out already but they will remain in the long lines until they vote. I call all women voters to choose their representatives wisely. #Voteforwomen #SomalilandElections2021
