Every 10 minutes, partners and family members killed a woman or a girl intentionally in 2023 The crisis of gender-based violence is urgent. There is #NoExcuse for violence against women and girls. The 16 Days of Activism is an opportunity to revitalize commitments, call for accountability and action from decision-makers, as the world approaches the 30th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action in 2025 – a visionary blueprint for achieving gender equality and women’s and girls’ rights everywhere.

There is #NoExcuse to violence against women 

Nearly  one in three women experience violence in their lifetime. Girls are at particular risk of violence—1 in 4 adolescent girls is abused by their partners

For thousands of women, the cycle of gender-based violence ended with one final and brutal act—their murder by partners and family members. 

Femicide (or feminicide) is the intentional killing of a women or girl because of her gender. It is a universal problem, and the most brutal, visible, and extreme manifestation of the cycle of gender-based violence that women and girls endure. 

Violence against women and girls can and must be prevented.

Radio Sangam, through one of its female presenters, Samea decided to take it upon themselves to support this cause and ensure that our listners have information and get involved.

The University of Bradford, The Justice Society and Peace Society of the university in recognition of the drive and determination of radio Sangam awarded the station with a prestigious award in recognition.
