GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE AND THE SDGs

Gender-based violence is affecting every single aspect of life in Canada and the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Grassroots groups have been advocating for change for a long time. We can’t wait any longer.

Gender-based violence is impacting families, communities and entire countries. While global heads of state convene to discuss struggling economies, migration, poverty, disease, and climate change, we at the grassroots level know that the eradication of gender-based violence and the empowerment of women and girls can bring increased wealth, health, peace and climate justice to our communities.

In fact, gender-based violence is destroying the world, and we can prove it.
