We made it. A giant step for African women and girls.
It's a victorious day for women and girls across the continent! The 38th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the AU has just adopted the #AUEVAWGConvention, a first of its kind comprehensive continental instrument to address #VAWG in Africa.

"Women still bear the brunt when it comes to financing in the political arena. Only 17% of African countries, among them, Togo, have gender-targeted funding." - Josephine Mwangi, Programme Manager, International IDEA. #LeadershipSawubona

Empowering women begins with securing #LandRights & implementing supportive policies. As the workshop concludes, grassroots leaders emphasized that women's rights to own & access land are essential for achieving #GenderJustice ahead of #AfricaBeijing30 consultations.

📢📢📢 Repeat it with us: Care work is a social good—not a burden. Reframing #care as a social good offers us a powerful tool in the struggle to get unpaid care work valued by #politicians, #donors, #businesses, & male allies alike. #CareCareCare #WECare10

#African women and girls living in poverty, and particularly those facing multiple discriminations like #race or #ethnicity, experience the greatest time poverty and opportunity costs due to unpaid care. This should not have a place in our society. #CareCareCare #WECare10

Across #Africa, women and girls are providing millions of hours of unpaid care and domestic work—a provision which props up the economy and underpins society, yet remains under-recognized, undervalued, and under-invested in. It's time we change this. ⌛️ #CareCareCare #WECare10

The silent struggle of young men's mental health is a consequence of a society that fails to provide a safe and accepting space for them to open up and seek help, as we commemorate this day, this narrative should change @_AfricanUnion @GlobalSpotlight @PadareMen @UNICEFZIMBABWE
#TheSilentStruggle: As we commemorate #WorldMentalHralthDay, l just thought of sharing how the pressure to conform to traditional ideas of masculinity leaves us feeling isolated, unable to express our fears & insecurities, leading to a silent struggle with ,our mental health

It is concerning that the number of women directly elected in the #LocalAuthority remains low, a clear violation of Sections 17, 56 and 80 of the Constitution which call for #GenderEquality in all sectors including political spaces. #LetsGo5050 #WomenLead
