It is hard to come up with words on the murder of another young woman with her whole life ahead of her. Ellie Flanagan was just 23.

At NWC, we are devastated. The loss for Ellie's loved ones is unfathomable. We send them love & solidarity.

Women, everywhere, should live free of violence. #EndVAW

Eine Gruppe von fünf Personen, darunter vier Frauen und ein Mann, stehen mit erhobenen Fäusten in einem Ausdruck von Entschlossenheit und Solidarität auf einer Brücke. Im Vordergrund ist ein großes rotes weibliches Symbol (Venus-Symbol) mit einer geballten Faust im Inneren zu sehen. Dazu der Text: Frauen und Alkoholschäden. Ganz klar ist Alkoholpolitik ein feministisches Thema.

Warum alkoholbedingte Schäden ein Frauenrechtsproblem sind:

#ElSalvador has some of the most restrictive reproductive laws in the world. Since 1998, abortion has been banned under all circumstances – including rape, incest and risk to the mother’s life – and in 1999 a constitutional amendment enshrined the protection of life from conception. #EndVAW

New Taliban Law Allows Men To Beat Their Wives Without Criminal Penalty “No one would see our pain unless our bones are broken.” Taliban’s new penal code legalises abuse and criminalises women fleeing violence.

The Taliban has outright legalised DV against #women. I wish all the women there would up & leave the country. Then all these men would learn a lesson. #endVAW #humanRights www.marieclaire.com.au/news/advocac...

We cannot wait to read Gisèle Pelicot's memoir. She is a trailblazer for survivors of #GenderBasedViolence, an icon of our time.

Wenn Männer Alkohol trinken, leiden Frauen und Kinder: die versteckten Folgen Weltweit gibt jede dritte Frau an, mit einem stark alkoholkonsumierenden Partner zusammenzuleben.

3/4 Einfach ausgedrückt: Wenn Männer viel Alkohol trinken, neigen sie eher dazu, anderen Schaden zuzufügen. Dennoch versäumen es Regierungen weltweit weitgehend, die versteckten Schäden des Alkoholkonsums von Männern anzugehen.

“Spread love, not hate” - the plea from the family of Alesia Nazarova, whose brother was yesterday found guilty of her murder. Our thoughts are with them today.

We urge the government in Stormont to step up with real action to #EndViolenceAgainstWomen and girls once and for all.

The sentence handed to Pacheco is a small piece of justice for her killing, but nothing will bring Bruna back.

We hope this sentencing brings some sense of closure for her family after the horrifying ordeal they have endured over the past few years.
