Pleased to have our dear Sima Bahous in town for important discussions with partners on how to strengthen #GenderinHumanitarianAction

.UN Women Executive Director Sima Bahous (Sima Bahous) said that the promises of the Beijing Declaration on women’s rights must not only be remembered “but fully realised”. She was speaking at a United Nations Human Rights Council panel discussion on #Beijing30. #HRC58

🚨 6 million displaced women and girls are bearing the brunt of the world’s worst humanitarian crisis after two years of relentless conflict in #Sudan. Read our press release: unwo.men/gQJP50VyAoS

"Today, more than 6 million displaced #Sudanese women & girls face daily threats to their safety and basic survival. In just 2 years, the number of people at risk of gender-based violence, including sexual violence, has tripled to over 12 million." - Sofia Calltorp, UN Women

Thank you Sofia Calltorp, Head of UN Women Geneva Office and Humanitarian lead for such a strong voice of situation of women in Sudan, hence the need for scaling up work in communities with women their families; as well as the importance of building peace. Solutions are within

Two years of war in #Sudan, women and girls have lost everything - their homes, families, safety and their livelihoods; suffering hunger and gender-based violence. UN Women urgently calls for restoration of peace and an immediate end to all forms of gender-based violence

The brutal attacks in North Darfur in which more than 100 civilians were killed, including children and aid workers, must be condemned. IHL must be respected, and the protection of civilians and humanitarian personnel ensured. Accountability for these actions is essential.

⚠️ Women’s bodies are being turned into battlegrounds in #Sudan. Today, as we mark two years since this devastating war began, their voices are loud and clear. They are demanding justice and that the world does not forget Sudan—or its women and girls. #KeepEyesOnSudan

"We are beginning to see the systematic use of rape and sexual violence as a weapon of war," Anna Mutavati, UN Women Regional Director for East and Southern Africa, via Reuters. #KeepEyesOnSudan reuters.com/world/africa/r…

"We have seen women's bodies being turned into battlegrounds. We have also seen what is beginning to look like systematic use of rape and sexual violence as a a weapon of war. They are demanding that perpetrators of the violence be brought to justice." - UN Women #Sudan

Supporting women in #Sudan must be at the heart of the humanitarian response. Women-led organizations do just that, but receive less than 2% of humanitarian aid. UN Women is in Sudan, staying and delivering with women-led organizations for women and girls. #KeepEyesOnSudan

Grateful for the opportunity to brief Geneva press corps on the situation for women and girls in Gaza today

Women & girls in #Sudan are facing sexual violence, food insecurity, collapsing healthcare & a siege in El Fasher. I join my @IASCch colleagues in calling for humanitarian access, perpetrators to be held accountable, & all civilians protected. Humanitarian law must be upheld.

As we cling to hope that the ceasefire in #Gaza holds, women and girls still face urgent needs. UN Women is on the ground alongside the United Nations to ensure that women are central to recovery. See what women in Gaza urgently need: unwo.men/6FCs50XkC4V #ForAllWomenAndGirls

Women in #Gaza stand tall as their homes have been reduced to dust. UN Women reports from the ground on what women & girls need to rebuild their lives. The ceasefire must hold. Aid must reach all women & girls without obstruction. Peace must prevail. #WPS #ForAllWomenAndGirls
