@NUSOJofficial with the support from @SWDC_ORG with the @Saferworld under @UN Peace-Building Fund carried out advocacy campaigns through the media to highlight violence and discrimination against #Somalia #women within the media, while encouraging candid discussion and the promotion of sustained campaigns that calls for the prevention and elimination of violence against women in politics and peace-building.
The key messages emphasised that everyone should support women to overcome barriers and challenge stereotypes on their roles and status in #Somali society

Here is a fascinating article by Eleanor Roosevelt from early 1948 on the process of drafting what would become the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It is remarkable how cooperative the effort seemed to be -- a big contrast w/ rights promotion today. foreignaffairs.com/articles/…

Many of the young legal minds who work in Mogadishu came through the @SWDC_ORG ranks and proud to even mention that majority are women. Kudos to the team there for bringing about the needed change in the legal field.
