Thanks @georgeinstitute and @HumanRightsUNSW for highlighting on #IWD2021 some of the work we are doing to end violence against women by investigating how the laws and policies designed to protect and empower women live in the real world.
On #IWD2021 , a big shout out to all the work our researchers are doing to further gender equity and realise women’s health rights! Meet Dr Janani Shanthosh, global health lawyer and Research Fellow @georgeinstitute @HumanRightsUNSW #ChooseToChallenge2021

A critical and overlooked obstacle to women’s economic empowerment is gender-based violence.
Our colleagues @JanShanthosh and @EmmaFeeny present the pressing need for data-driven analyses to hold governments accountable for GBV.

Already 1 yr since my book on PAR was published. After several presentations F2F/online, blog posts and podcasts, the BEST part are the people who reach out to share their thoughts and ask to work together. More and more people are keen to use #ParticipatoryMethods #PAR

On #IWD2023, gender equality advocates everywhere are uniting to drive progress. Part of this effort needs to involve dismantling the silos that exist between health & human rights. We have 3 ideas on where to start. @HumanRightsUNSW @GeorgeInstUK @claudia_selin @ncdalliance
