🚨 This #FeministWednesday, we're spotlighting the urgent need to confront conflict-related sexual violence in the Greater Horn of Africa! Women and girls are facing alarming levels of this brutality, with their bodies being used as horrific weapons of war in the region's long-standing conflicts. 💬 Recently, we hosted an insightful Regional Webinar, "Unseen Wounds: Confronting the Devastating Toll of Conflict-Related Sexual Violence on Women and Girls in the Greater Horn of Africa," where voices from across the region shared the harsh realities, discussed systemic gaps, and emphasized the need for feminist-led solutions, documentation, and trauma-informed care. 🎥 Watch the full webinar recording here: youtu.be/CJ2cYJ7jqoI #ItsNotYourFault #StopRapeNow #CRSV #EndSGBV ----------------------- @FidaUganda @Nagaad_Network @women_ewla @Musawah @DutchMFA @NLcivilsociety @NLinSudan @NLinSomalia @NLinUganda @NLinEthiopia @NLinSouthSudan @JacklineNasiwa @PILPG @CIGPJ1 @FlaviaMwaka @EqualityNow_AF @acfode @FemnetProg @IlwadElman @gama_roselyn @UAFAfrica @vosomwo @SSWEN0 @hrw @Article35_ET @WillemijnVL @JudithAdokorach @unwomenafrica @EWomen4justice @GoodSamaritanA3 @GAFIUg @WoriUganda @feminature @Amani_initiativ @worudet @FidaSouthSudan
