⚠️ $5K MATCH FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF ⚠️

#HurricaneMelissa has torn through #Jamaica.

We know that climate-related disasters magnify the existing inequalities that LGBTIQ people face, with many experiencing limited or no access to vital emergency relief.

In Gaza:

❌ destroyed infrastructure
❌ displacement
❌ limited access to water...

...have made it nearly impossible to manage menstruation safely or with dignity.

Sexual and reproductive health is a right. Palestinian girls and women must not be left behind.

#ThursdaysInBlack:
- If you see violence and stay silent, you’re not neutral - you’re a bystander.
- Rape culture thrives on silence, fear, and indifference.
- Speak up. Intervene. Support survivors.
- End rape and gender-based violence.

Every Thursday, we wear black in solidarity with victims and survivors of all forms of gender-based violence.
In Fiji, 64% of women experience intimate partner violence in their lifetime. This is unacceptable. Ending violence against women is not optional.

Wearing black is also our demand: to end violence and oppression, achieve gender justice, take urgent climate action, ensure women’s equal leadership through measures like TSMs and much more. We envision a future grounded in peace, equality, and human rights for all.

For 214 million girls worldwide, reproductive healthcare remains out of reach. Every young woman deserves autonomy over her body and future. It's time to remove barriers and ensure unhindered access to sexual and reproductive healthcare. #GirlsRights

We stand with women everywhere, and with trans and gender-diverse folx whose lives are disrupted and stolen by conflict and oppression, feminicide and hatred, and we refuse to accept silence or complicity. Violence is never acceptable. Justice, accountability, and peace are non-negotiable.

Sexual justice cannot exclude older women. "The M Word: Ending the Silence" research highlights that the lack of comprehension among men and young boys about menopause results in ongoing gender stereotypes targeting women.
