- Description
- This report considers the social and economic costs of violence against women and girls (VAWG) in Pakistan. The results presented originate from the What Works to Prevent Violence: Economic and Social Costs project (2014-2019), funded by the UK Department for International Development (DFID). One of the findings is that 2.2% of employed women in Pakistan are not working as a consequence of VAWG. Besides, children of women experiencing intimate partner violence miss over two million school days annually. The results show the impact of VAWG on economic productivity and wellbeing in Pakistan and the need for more investment in prevention programmes.

- Description
- This report analyzes data for all 50 states and the District of Columbia across six topical areas that affect women’s lives: political participation, employment and earnings, work and family, poverty and opportunity, health and well-being, and violence and safety. Within each of these areas, various indicators of well-being are explored. While the focus of the report is on the status of Black women, comparisons between Black women and other racial and ethnic groups of women (and men) are presented to contextualize the data. Basic demographic data for each state are also provided. The report concludes with recommendations to improve the status of Black women in the United States.

- Vrouwenverenigingen in België hebben in het kader van de Wereldvrouwenmars in 2000 een gemeenschappelijk charter uitgewerkt voor de bestrijding van armoede en geweld tegen vrouwen. Tijdens het Vrouwenparlement is een rechtstreekse dialoog op gang gebracht tussen vrouwenverenigingen en vrouwelijke en mannelijke parlementsleden en ministers over deze thema's. Het streven is een concrete aanpak van een democratische werking die meer rekening houdt met de genderdimensie.
