At this year’s Standard Bank Top Women Conference, Dr Purna Sen, UN Policy Director, spoke about discrimination, gender inequality and the structural changes that need to happen in order to end gender based violence (GBV). Some of the highlights of this important conversation include:
COVID-19 has been a period of contemplation full of potential for re-energising and re-directing the work we do.
How can we build a world that works for women?
#Metoo is a spontaneous global uprising against sexual violence – with 25 million impressions on Twitter over a 2-year period.
Sexual harassment, violence and abuse are all forms of inequality.
Ending GBV is about changing how we think.
