Hi dearest
readers ;)
Today is
Orange Day.
Take action to Orange your day on Sunday,
June 25th 2017 !!!
This Orange
Day, 25 June 2017, the UNiTE Campaign focuses on Violence against Refugee Women and Girls.
50 per cent of the world's refugees are women
and girls 1 . They face specific challenges and protection risks in transit,
including family separation, psychosocial stress and trauma, health
complications, particularly for pregnant women, physical harm and injury, and
risks of exploitation and gender-based violence. An estimated one in five
refugees or displaced women in complex humanitarian settings have experienced
sexual violence—likely an underestimation given the barriers associated with
disclosure2.
Many of
these women are fleeing conflict in their homeland and have suffered extreme
violence and human rights violations, including the killing and disappearance
of family members, sexual and gender based violence, and disrupted access to
food, water, and electricity. Some have been repeatedly displaced or have been
exploited or abused while attempting to seek asylum. Women are also often the
main caretakers for children and elderly family members, further deepening
their need for protection and support 3. With limited economic opportunities, their
options to build a livelihood are often limited to lowpaid informal work which
increases their risk to be put in a position where the only option is having to
engage in transactional sex.
At least 10
of the 169 targets of 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development include
references to issues directly pertaining to international migration, migrants,
and mobility 4. All UN
Member States are called upon to facilitate the safe, orderly, and regular
migration and mobility of people, including through the implementation of
planned migration policies. Any measure taken to achieve Goal 5 and eliminate
all forms of violence against ALL women and girls must include women and girls
who are refugee and migrant.

What is Orange Day ?
The UN Secretary-General’s UNiTE to End Violence against Women campaign, managed by UN Women, has
proclaimed every 25th of the month as “Orange Day” – a day to take action to
raise awareness and prevent violence against women and girls.Initiated and led by the UNiTE campaign Global Youth Network, Orange Day calls upon activists, governments and UN partners to mobilize people and highlight issues relevant to preventing and ending violence against women and girls, not only once a year, on 25 November (International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women), but every month.
