Within this dynamic, there is a continuum of coercion ranging from physical violence to psychosocial pressure. It\u2019s a marriage where at least one is married without consent, against their will or is not able to exit the marriage.\u00a0Kamande participated in a UN Human Rights\u2019 expert workshop on the dire consequences of forced marriage on women and girls and on the tools to end this harmful practice. The workshop brought together the international community, experts, forced marriage survivors and activists to Geneva, Switzerland.\u00a0According to UN Human Rights, forced marriage is a human rights violation and a harmful practice that disproportionately affects women and girls globally. The goal of the workshop was to increase understanding about the complexity of forced marriage including the diverse drivers and the need for context specific policy and legal measures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessghana.com\/site\/news\/general\/277713\/Forced-marriage:-a-violation-of-human-rights\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><em>Read More<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Sex Trade Survivors, Women\u2019s and Human Rights Advocates, and Anti-Trafficking Organizations from Around the World Call on South Africa to Reject New Bill Decriminalizing the Sex Trade<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><em>PR Newswire, 09 Jan 2023<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Nearly 2,000 sex trade survivors, women\u2019s and human rights advocates, anti-trafficking organizations, frontline service providers, and concerned individuals from over 60 countries signed\u00a0an open letter\u00a0urging the South African government to reject the Bill proposed by the Minister and Deputy Minister of Justice and Correctional Services,\u00a0Ronald Lamola\u00a0and\u00a0John Jeffery, respectively.The Bill repeals all criminal offences related to prostitution, effectively decriminalizing the sex trade (the \u201cJeffery Bill\u201d).\u00a0Along with the\u00a0Coalition Against Trafficking in Women (CATW), the signatories include\u00a0CAP International,\u00a0Equality Now,\u00a0the European Network of Migrant Women,\u00a0the Sisterhood is Global Institute,\u00a0SPACE International,\u00a0the Survivor Empowerment &amp; Support Programme (SESPE),\u00a0and\u00a0World Without Exploitation.\u00a0American author and feminist activist\u00a0Gloria Steinem\u00a0is also among the signatories.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.co.uk\/news-releases\/sex-trade-survivors-womens-and-human-rights-advocates-and-anti-trafficking-organizations-from-around-the-world-call-on-south-africa-to-reject-new-bill-decriminalizing-the-sex-trade-301716080.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><em>Read More<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Iran protesters told they are \u2018bringing down the patriarchy\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><em>Evening Standard, 09 Jan 2023<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Comedian\u00a0Omid Djalili\u00a0told\u00a0Iranian\u00a0protesters that they are \u201cbringing down the patriarchy\u201d at a protest in\u00a0London.Thousands of protesters gathered at Marble Arch before marching through central London to\u00a0Trafalgar Square\u00a0for the Iran Solidarity Rally, which marked 115 days of protests.

The statement comes weeks after the Taliban\u2019s higher education minister declared a ban on women seeking education at Afghanistan\u2019s universities on December 21.\u00a0The ban comes along with another restriction\u00a0on young girls, who have been excluded from secondary schools since the Taliban came back to power in 2021.
