PRESS RELEASE: The Governments of Canada and British Columbia sign bilateral agreement to end gender-based violence canada.ca/en/women-gende…
"BCSTH and its membership stand in partnership and solidarity with the B.C. government to build a province and world where all survivors and their families thrive and GBV is no longer a daily reality.” Read the full press release: news.gov.bc.ca/releases/2023F…
Invest in women-centered housing. Violence is the leading cause of women's homelessness but too many women are forced to choose between safety & shelter due to a lack of affordable, appropriate, long-term housing. #16DaysofActivism #NoExcuse #InternationalHumanRightsDay #BCSTH
Invest in safe and reliable transportation for women. Secure transit options help to create a community where women can travel easily and without fear, ensuring they do not have to stay in violent situations. bcsth.ca/project/bcsth-… #16DaysofActivism #NoExcuse #BCSTH
In 2022, the gov't of Canada released its National Action Plan to End Gender-Based Violence (NAP). Anti-violence experts created a “Roadmap” to keep it on track. To save lives, gov't needs to keep it a priority. nationalactionplan.ca #16DaysofActivism #NoExcuse
GBV must end. Canada even released a National Action Plan (NAP) to end it. But the NAP has a few problems- it's a plan w/out Action Steps, Timelines, Assigned Roles. For the plan to work we need to follow the Roadmap. nationalactionplan.com #16DaysofActivism #NoExcuse
This National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, #BCSTH remembers the 14 women murdered in 1989 at École Polytechnique because they were women. Take a stand against the violence that occurs to women worldwide at the hands of men. #16DaysofActivism #NoExcuse
Help make it happen for Voice Male: Pro-Feminist Men's Magazine Est. 1983 on @Indiegogo igg.me/p/2864004/twtr
UBCO Health & Exercise Sciences are conducting a study w/ women who are survivors of IPV who were seen by paramedics for violence-caused reasons. The project goal is to characterize the survivor experience to drive positive change in the care provided to survivors by paramedics.
Canada's National Action Plan to End Gender-Based Violence (NAP) doesn't say Femicide! If the NAP doesn't say Femicide then Canada isn't acknowledging that 150 murders of women in 2022 were related to their gender. #CallitFemicide #16DaysofActivism #NoExcuse #BCSTH
Invest in legal education and access for women. Legal education empowers women to understand their rights and how to access relief through the legal system that can protect them from violence. Find #BCSTH's Legal Toolkit @ bcsth.ca/wp-content/upl… #16DaysofActivism #NoExcuse
