International Women's Day, 8 March 2013
This International Women's Day, 8 March 2013, we look at women's rights in Sierra Leone and mothers living with conflict in Syria. Join us to act and pray for women around the world.
Gender
Unequal distribution and unfair abuses of power are at the heart of poverty. And the greatest, most pervasive inequality in the world is that between women and men.
Violence against women and girls is the focus of this year's Commission on the Status of Women.
Join us to act and pray for mothers around the world, who, like Samira, are living with war and conflict.
Fighting inequality between women and men.
Gender rights are enshrined in law, but woman must still fight for justice.
Colombia: rights
Colombia continues to be one of the most dangerous places in the world to speak out in defence of human rights. But for women human rights defenders there are increased risks and dangers.
