Safe Cities: Free from Violence against Women and Girls

“Safe Cities: Free from Violence against Women and Girls”
Published on Dec 9, 2013
UN Women’s Egypt country office has produced a new public service announcement through its “Safe Cities: Free from Violence against Women and Girls” project to highlight threats and unwanted advances impact Egyptian women and girls. Aimed at raising awareness among both women and men, the PSA is filmed as a direct invitation to men and boys to put themselves in women’s place and to stop blaming them for sexual harassment under that very slogan: “Put yourself in her shoes, instead of finding ways to blame her!”

Hillary Clinton on Violence Against Girls As we mark the 16 days of activism against gender violence take 16 minutes to watch this powerful speech by Hillary Clinton, US Secretary of State at the United Nations on 25 September 2009. “… issues related to girls and women are not an annex to the important business of the world and the United Nations, they’re not an add-on, they’re not an afterthought; they are truly at the core of what we are attempting to do under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that is the guiding message of this organization and what each of us in our own countries is called to do on behalf of equal opportunity and social justice” Source: IPS Gender Wire

UNIFEM releases video series on gender and the MDGshttp://www.unifem.org/news_events/story_detail.php?StoryID=1167

In time for the UN Summit on the Millennium Development Goals 2010, UNIFEM (part of UN Women), in collaboration with UNTV, has produced a series of five videos highlighting select MDGs from a gender perspective. The videos are introduced by internationally renowned TV journalist Daljit Dhaliwal.

MDG 1: Cambodia

Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger

Eradicating extreme hunger and poverty is a key focus of the Millennium Development Goals set in 2000 by world leaders at the United Nations. Secure employment is critical to overcome poverty, yet worldwide 60 percent of people are working without a formal contract or social security protection. The majority of them are women and too often their labour rights are exploited. But one idea showing promise can be found in the homes of women in Cambodia. We travelled to Phnom Penh to see how the ri! ghts of home-based women workers are being protected, providing the women with a ladder out of severe poverty.

MDG 3: Liberia

Promote Gender Equality and Empower Women

Liberia — it was a country engulfed in war, its women bearing the brunt of the conflict. While peace finally did come, the legacy of violence against women continues to haunt the country. But Liberia’s women are now taking positions of power and filling roles usuall! y dominated by men. We look now at how women in decision-making positions are helping to pave a new path to their country’s future.

MDG 6: Botswana

Combat HIV/AIDS

Botswana, in Southern Africa, reportedly has one of the highest HIV and AIDS prevalence rates in the world. Especially hard hit are the women in rural areas, who cannot access medical care. While there still is a very long way to go, new methods for delivering services and information to hard-to-reach women is starting to make a difference.

MDG 7: Colombia

Ensure Environmental Sustainability

Climate change in parts of the world can lead to an increased struggle to grow food and the displacement of populations. This is the case in Northern Colombia among the indigenous Wayuu people, where desert conditions have been exacerbated in recent years. As in many parts of the world, it is the Wayuu women who feed their families and provide water — and they are struggling to ensure their community’s very survival despite dwindling water resources.

The Missing MDG Target: Violence against Women

Tragically, up to three-quarters of women and girls worldwide experience physical or sexual violence in their lifetime. And the effect on the millions of girls and women who are abused is devastating — not just on them personally, but also on their ability to fully participate in the development of their countries. Unless violence against women is curbed, meeting all of the eight Millennium Development Goals will be impossible.

(In Spanish) Una revolución con rostro de mujer

Las mujeres de Bolivia fueron protagonistas de la lucha por los cambios sociales y políticos plasmados en la nueva Constitución. Aplicar esos avances es otra historia. Las organizaciones de mujeres campesinas e indígenas querían la mitad de los lugares en las listas para los comicios de diciembre de 2009. Pero las cúpulas partidarias siguen siendo reductos masculinos.

The Critical Challenge of Gender Equality

IPS Africa partnered with the Millennium Campaign in Nairobi, Kenya to host a public forum entitled: “Meeting the MDGs: The Critical Challenge of Gender Equality.” More than 150 people attended the event on Monday, 3 August 2009, which included government and diplomatic representatives, academics, NGOs, gender advocacy groups and the media.
