Yes, yes and yes again! Couldn't agree more.
Men who perpetrate domestic and sexual violence are *made*, not born. Their use of violence is the unsurprising outcome of widespread social conditions. They use violence not because of some hardwired disposition but because of the gendered norms and inequalities around them. 1/3

This is worth bringing to everyone's attention again! Make sure your school is signed up to receive the ring-fenced funding for period products free for students. Let's end period poverty!

Wonderful article (& thread by one time GLI founding director in Australia) about the important work being done to challenge homophobia in rugby & sport.
I'm really proud of Morgan for his words in this piece, just as I'm really proud of @Outonthefields and the broader gay rugby movement. One of the most important things I've been a part of. theguardian.com/sport/2020/dโ€ฆ

When a woman shares her story of violence, she takes the first step to breaking the cycle of abuse. Itโ€™s on all of us to give her the safe space she needs to speak up and be heard. #16Days #orangetheworld #GenerationEquality

We are calling on governments to adopt effective measures in the formal labor market to increase women's participation, to narrow and close the wage gap between women and men, and to ensure equal pay for work of equal value. #16Days #GenerationEquality
