With increased violence against women now being dubbed a ‘Shadow Pandemic’ by the UN (see link), it is important we work harder than ever to fight gender based abuse.

We are sharing this picture of two brave survivors recently supported by Next Link, the 2 candles honouring the 2 women killed a week.

Over 16 days, we also share photos from our partners, who stand in solidarity with Next Link and Safe Link to say violence against women and girls must stop!
