In 2015 the United Nations adopted 19 June as the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict. The day aims to “raise awareness of the need to put an end to conflict-related sexual violence, to honour the victims and survivors of sexual violence around the world and to pay tribute to all those who have courageously devoted their lives to and lost their lives in standing up for the eradication of these crimes”. 2019 marks the 10-year anniversary of the establishment of the mandate of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict. Over the past decade, there has been a paradigm shift in the understanding of the scourge of conflict-related sexual violence as threat to international peace and security. In addition, it remains essential to recognize and tackle gender inequality as the root cause and driver of sexual violence, in times of war and peace. The response required to address such crimes includes the multidimensional services for survivors. EWEI Nigeria condemns all forms of sexual violence as a tactic of war and an impediment to peacebuilding. #endrapeinwar2019 #endrapeinwar #endrapeinconflict https://www.instagram.com/p/By4mxWRAIO5/?igshid=jg1w80bn55v1

The Winners of the #NobelPeacePrize for 2018 are Dr Denis Mukwege and Nadia Murad. They are helping better the lives of victims of sexual violence and human trafficking. _ Dr Mukwege is a gynecologist helping victims of sexual violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where he founded the Panzi Hospital, a @untrustfundevaw grantee. According to him, he tries to heal his patients not only physically, but also psychologically “in order to restore their dignity and their capacity to defend their own rights and fight stigma, the humiliation and discrimination they face in their community.” _ Nadia Murad was kidnapped in 2014 at age 19 in Iraq, held hostage and constantly subjected to sexual violence. Since then, she has been a brave and powerful voice for survivors of human trafficking and victims of sexual violence. After escaping 3 months of captivity, she started seeking justice for victims everywhere, telling her story to the world time and again, even though that meant reliving horrific memories of abuse and suffering. _ #NobelPrize #EndRapeInWar #NadiaMurad #MeToo #UNTF #NobelPrice #EndRapeInWar #MeToo #FemmeForte #Peace #DRC #panzihospital @panziusa @mukwegefoundation Source: @unwomen #feminism #colouredafrica https://www.instagram.com/p/BojwVC3n2AE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=owswu6xsnrve

Tuesday is International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict. "Sexual violence in conflict is a threat to our collective security and a stain on our common humanity," said UN Secretary-General António Guterres, who believes that the "prevention of sexual violence must remain one of our highest priorities." Our colleagues from @UNWomen are working to hold perpetrators accountable and achieve justice for survivors of sexual violence in conflict. The goal is to make these crimes a relic of the past. On #EndRapeInWar Day and every day, join us in supporting courageous survivors seeking justice. 📸: UN Photo / Rick Bajornas --------------------------------------------------------------- #brainpower #intellectualsocialclub #mindset #pendropdiscussions #pendropdiscussionsraleigh #pendropdiscussionsapproved #pendropdiscussionswellnessjourney #pendropdiscussionswellnesstraining #wellpendropdiscussions #news #HealingVibrations #humanrace #humanrights #communicatedifferent #instalove #instanews #instatoday #motivation #success #pendropdiscussionsnews
