"many still don’t understand what violence truly is. Raising awareness is the solution" said one respondent to this survey on violence against women and girls (VAWG) in Iran. Results explored in these incredible animations, from Ladan Hashemi and many collaborators

Today, @rapecrisis.bsky.social CEO @ciarabergman.bsky.social has publicly and directly criticised the total absence of the sexual violence reduction - or any VAWG mission related mention - in the PMs milestones speech & the real term cut in victim services funding. rapecrisis.org.uk/news/our-ceo...
