“Violence against women and girls continues unabated in every continent, country, and culture. It takes a devastating toll on women’s lives, on their families, and on society as a whole. Most societies prohibit such violence- yet the reality is that too often, it is covered up or tacitly condoned,”  (UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon)

Write a letter to His Excellency, the President of the DRC- Joseph Kabila Kabange, urging the Government to step up and stop sexual violence against women and girls and more importantly, to bring perpetrators to justice.

Send letters to:
