We aren’t safe because male violence is present in every part of society. More park lights, spike rings, rape alarms and even criminalisation won’t help this. Compulsory education programmes on gender and exploring masculinity early on, might.

Such atrocious abuses of power, which show us again that there are no limits to the environments and strategies used by those perpetrating sexual violence. Every single one of the women & girls harmed by this violence, deserve access to specialist support. news.sky.com/story/who-sex-…

It's been a very heavy day and week. It's hard for anyone to engage with the reality of #VAWG and for those of us holding our own experiences of sexual violence, and living daily with the threat of abuse, harassment and violence - it is even more painful.

"We could be the generation that ends violence against women and girls, if we start with changing not women’s behaviour, but the stories we tell about them." From the media to pornography, how women are depicted has real-life consequences, says @VeraGrayF theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Thank you for bringing such strong challenge and inspiration to all of us in the room. "it is not young people creating barriers but the adults and systems in place" - an important message for us all to remember.
