Women are still being sidelined in leadership, activism & decision-making. Without them at the table, key issues - #GBV, #harassment, economic barriers - go overlooked. Hanna Lemma founded Addis Power House to change that. Read her story 👉 bit.ly/3QxueKr #IWD2025

Our women speakers, from a safe house in Tigray and a one-stop center in Amhara, had so much heartbreak to share. Clearly, conflict related sexual violence goes beyond other forms of gender based violence as it intends to punish and/or humiliate individuals and their communities.
Panel moderated by @HannaLemma8 included Zekarias Desalgn, @Ethiopia_MoWsa Abeba Haile, Women’s Association of Tigray, & Medina Workineh, Dessie’s One-Stop Center as panelists. The panel discussed vulnerabilities and measures to protect women and girls during conflicts. #16Days
