Today, 25 November, we recognise the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
Women and girls with disabilities experience higher rates of violence yet face the greatest barriers to support.

This year’s theme, "Towards Beijing+30: UNiTE to End Violence Against Women and Girls”, calls for stronger protection, survivor-centred services and real accountability.

At FAS Foundation, we stand with women and girls with disabilities, advocating for safety, inclusion, and a future free from violence.
Everyone deserves to live with dignity, respect and equal protection.

We must act together.
