"Gender-based violence does not stop with a certain age. Yet, gender-based violence against older women remains largely invisible and overlooked in policymaking"
"Let's not forget older women. Let's call on the European Commission to create an ambitious Gender Equality Strategy 2026-2030 that combats gender-based violence against ALL women."
"Older women face multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination that accumulate over the lifetime, all of which create specific situations of vulnerability to abuse and neglect"
Violence against older women is often hidden - but it’s real. During #16DaysofActivism, the #MARVOWProject conference, a project AGE is partnering in, shines a light on this abuse and empowers communities to take action.
