Breaking the Cycle, Healing the Scars: Addressing the Intergenerational Effects of Conflict-Related Sexual Violence
The event will commemorate the 11th official observance of the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict. It is co-hosted by the UN offices for Sexual Violence in Conflict, Children and Armed Conflict, and Argentina’s Permanent Mission.

Preventing, Responding And Eliminating Violence Against Women
Many efforts to address violence against women have mostly concentrated on response efforts and paid less attention to primary prevention which is the key to eliminating this vice completely. Primary prevention requires innovative efforts. It addresses the root causes of violence against women, such as gender inequality and adverse childhood experiences. It also tackles factors that foster abuse or tolerance of abuse, such as alcohol use and societal violence.
Join us on Friday, December 4th, the 10th day of #16daysofactivism against Gender-Based Violence. We will moderate a Twitter Chat on “Preventing, Responding and Eliminating Violence Against Women” starting from 3:00 pm EAT and 1:00 pm GMT. Join this engaging conversation under the hashtags #NoMoreGBV #16DaysofActivism2020.
