As we begin #16DaysOfActivism against #gender-based violence, we're reminded that prevention is key. Acting early can help protect women and girls, including those vulnerable to #HumanTrafficking. Research shows that survivors often experience increased risks of #femicide due to societal stigma and lack of support. Let's break this cycle together. #16Days #OrangeTheWorld #ActEarly #NoExcuse #EndGBV #EndViolence #ACTtoEndViolence #EndHumanTrafficking

We need peace in Sudan. We need an immediate cessation of hostilities. We need safe & unimpeded delivery of humanitarian aid. We need an end to the flow of weapons & fighters. We need the Sudanese Armed Forces & the Rapid Support Forces to come to the negotiating table.

#EUAntiTraffickingDay is the perfect moment for a daily reminder: ⭕️ 27.6 million people trafficked globally ⭕️less than 1% identified ⭕️ 1 in 3 victims is a child ⭕️#technology is increasingly used by traffickers, especially for recruitment & online exploitation. These statistics deserve our attention not just today, but every day. #EndHumanTrafficking

Today felt like a watershed day on the issue of Trafficking of Children in Ireland...... We have a way to go, but the expertise, professionalism and passion to make a difference in these children's lives was palpable.....
