As the globe observes Human Rights Day on December 10, Pakistan is situated at the crossroads of two significant anniversaries: the ongoing fight against gender-based violence (GBV) and the celebration of universal human rights.
Human Rights Day raises awareness of our shared responsibility to protect the rights and dignity of every person, but it also highlights the harsh reality that Pakistani women and girls must contend with. This worldwide observance, which also marks the 10 days of activism for the UNiTE campaign against gender-based violence, brings much-needed attention to the pervasive online and offline abuse that women still experience in this nation.
further than just a token gesture, this confluence has to inspire further in-depth thought.
