GWL Voices

Just 20 women spoke at #UNGA79—this is unacceptable! We urgently need a #MadamSecretaryGeneral, #Rotation4Equality, and greater representation of #WomenInPolitics. Achieving gender equality in multilateralism is essential, and #GWLVoices is dedicated to driving this change.

Data tells the story: More women in parliaments = stronger action against gender-based violence. At #GWLVoices, we champion women’s leadership to drive policies that protect and empower. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dHgJWunw #NoExcuse #N25

🌍 The #G20 Rio Declaration made a key step for gender equality, highlighting women’s leadership in climate action, economic justice, and decision-making. While we celebrate these commitments, the real work lies in ensuring women lead the way to a sustainable future. #GenderEquality https://lnkd.in/eDmAazUz

Every 10 minutes, a woman is killed due to gender-based violence. This must end. At #GWLVoices, we advocate for a gender-equal multilateral system where women’s leadership drives stronger policies to #EndGBV and protect lives. Source: UN Women #16Days #NoExcuse

#16Days of Activism: Female political leadership is key to fighting gender-based violence: 1️⃣ More women in parliament = stronger GBV legislation. 2️⃣ Higher female representation = lower levels of physical violence. 3️⃣ Female heads of government drive visibility & action on GBV. #NoExcuse for violence! #EndGBV More: https://lnkd.in/dHgJWunw

As #GWLVoices, we’re proud to contribute to the Feminist Foreign Policy course organized by Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores, Unión Europea y Cooperación & Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals. This is an inspiring opportunity to advance #WomenInMultilateralism with incredible leaders like Ana María Alonso, Zulema Altamirano, and our very own Cristina Gallach.

#GWLVoices applaud Slovenia, Mexico & Spain for championing women’s representation at the UN! 🌍 Their joint statement, supported by 78 nations, calls for gender parity in leadership roles. #MadamSecretaryGeneral #Rotation4Equality 💪 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ep7C8nJc

Reflection from #GWLVoices member Aïchatou Mindaoudou: Gender equality and environmental health are deeply connected. In climate crises, women and girls bear the heaviest burdens—from poverty to rising gender-based violence. We must act with urgency. #ClimateJustice #N25 #NoExcuse

Reflection from #GWLVoices member Bettina Tucci Bartsiotas: Accelerating action on domestic violence means uniting for safety, support, and security for all women. It's time to turn commitment into change. #EndViolenceAgainstWomen #N25 #GenderEquality #NoExcuse

At #GWLVoices, our narrative is rooted in data-driven insights. The reality is clear: the presence of women in parliaments significantly correlates with the adoption and implementation of legislation addressing all forms of gender-based violence (GBV). #NoExcuse #N25 https://lnkd.in/dHgJWunw
