Gender violence is a painful reality for women and girls in Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay. The lack of basic services and limited access to rapid and vital assistance put them at constant risk. Grassroots organizations, generally based in remote locations, work as first responders in their communities, saving lives. They provide legal and psychosocial support, deliver training courses, disseminate information, sustain women's shelter and hotlines, and advocate for their rights.
Did you know that building networks are crucial for women and girls at risk? Networking is key to reduce isolation, lack of information, and guarantee their rights. A network of women can start with something as simple as a chat. Contact between one woman and another, opens the door for a connection. That is how groups emerge which then become a space for dialogue and within these groups support and trusted information are provided. They listen to each other. They organize themselves.
In each community and in each neighborhood, the networks that are woven are a vital tool to provide support, prevent and eradicate the various types of violence that stop women and girls. Your donation will strengthen the work of grassroots organizations that come into direct contact with gender-based violence survivors and advocate for their rights. Together we can eradicate all types of violence against women and girls!
We envisions a world in which women in all their diversity enjoy the full exercise of their human rights, where they can defend their rights and achieve their well-being, free from violences and discriminations. In 2023, we supported 40 organizations from Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, which carried out more than 14,000 activities to support women facing gender-based violence, reaching a total of 50,000 indirect beneficiaries.
