Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict.
We pay tribute to all victims through history, but as the overwhelming majority are women and girls, we particularly highlighted them on this year's poster.
Love, peace, and solidarity. ❤️🕊✊️

Sexual violence is used to terrorize.
In conflict zones, survivors—often girls—are pulled out of school due to stigma, trauma, or pregnancy.
No child should lose education because of this brutality.
Sexual violence is a violation of humanitarian law.
