8 countries have already signed the #AUCEVAWG, with more expected. Our webinar aims to make this technical instrument accessible, breaking down its legal meaning & showing how it can be applied in real work to end violence against women-Dr Helen Kezie Nwoha #MobilizingForJustice

@PackardFdn We believe the convention will also safeguard the space for civil society, advocacy, and women’s movements to thrive. - Yemeserach Belayneh, @PackardFdn @AU_WGYD @GimacNetwork @GimacYouth @elisah_mbiza

On going webinar -"We believe the new convention will strengthen the continental human rights landscape at a time of increased opposition and violations of women's rights in an unprecedented manner." - Yemeserach Belayneh, @PackardFdn

Violence against women in Africa is widespread and evolving. The #AUCEVAWG builds on the Maputo Protocol to ✔️ Cover all forms of violence (incl. digital) ✔️ Focus on prevention, protection & accountability ✔️ Center survivors #MobilizingForJustice @GimacNetwork @PackardFdn

Corruption will not stop us from achieving #AUCEVAWG as many think. There are already systems in place like different CSOs that are fighting corruption - Bunmi Dipo Salami @baobab_rights #MobilizingForJustice @GimacNetwork @PackardFdn @keziehelen @AU_WGYD

Why more conventions when we already have the Maputo Protocol? Because each one builds on gaps, updates recommendations, and strengthens the fight against violence. #AUCEVAWG @keziehelen @GimacNetwork Chairperson. #MobillzingForJustice @AU_WGYD @PackardFdn

This message hits home: Bills on paper don’t feed families. Uganda needs a Minimum Wage Bill to make justice real. #WageBillNow #UgandaWorkers

Imagine the joy when every Ugandan worker earns a fair wage. 🌱 Dignity is coming. #WageBillNow #UgandaWorkers

@DeMercyK 💯 Yes! When workers are valued, Uganda’s beauty isn’t just seen it’s lived. The Minimum Wage Bill is about dignity, survival, and hope for every family. #WageBillNow #UgandaWorkers

Uganda’s beauty will shine brightest when workers are valued. The Minimum Wage Bill is the missing piece. #WageBillNow #UgandaWorkers

@DCICUg It's a good start but how about who are not in service or those who do not hold any of those. Please work for the people (majority)

When women defenders gather, we don’t just meet we build safety, solidarity, and power. Today’s session reminded us that even technical glitches can’t silence collective resilience. @wougnet @NyapendiEsther

"Poverty + patriarchy force parents into painful choices, leaving many girls with marriage as their ‘only escape.’” - @elisah_mbiza Our response is ALLYSHIP. We must partner with men and boys to champion positive masculinity and challenge these harmful norms. The success in driving the AU Convention by @GimacNetwork is our roadmap. ​#EndChildMarriage #GirlsDeserveBetter #SheLeadsWeRise

Many young men want to enjoy stuff but don’t want responsibility. If you’re man enough, marry the woman you love - Ruto
