Kayan Feminist Organization: On the International day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, we need to raise our voices

Kayan - Feminist Organization

On the International day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, we need to raise our voices:

Because we women have the right to live in dignity
Because we have the right over our bodies
Because we have the right to chose our partner
And we have the right to walk away from a relationship without fear of being murdered

It is our duty to raise our voice,
because there are millions of women caught in the vicious cycle of violence – violently silenced, unable to raise their voice.
Because it is our right to live securely and safely, and not fear any kind of violence – be it physical, emotional, psychological, economic, social, political, sexual, or personal.
