Stop Violence Against Women
"Women are in double jeopardy. Discriminated against
as women, they are also as likely as men, if not more so, to become victims
of human rights violations... Today, what unites women internationally - transcending
class, race, culture, religion, nationality and ethnic origin - is their vulnerability
to the denial and violation of their fundamental human rights, and their
dedicated efforts to claim those rights."
