I believe we need to send out a clear message that 'no means no', and that raping a woman is an act of gender-based violence. The murder connected to such an act is femicide. Pls share and let our voices unite in memory of Paulina. Call 179 if you need support, you are not alone

10 years of #humanrights work: "...while NGOs remain vital in providing vulnerable people with basic services...they will also continue to remind the nation that things can and should work differently to what the government is saying." Read the full interview in @TheTimesofMalta

Too often, women are insulted, beaten, raped, forced to prostitute themselves.... If we want a better world, that will be a peaceful home and not a battlefield, we all need to do a lot more for the dignity of each woman.

New issue of @MurmurationsJ! "The writers in this issue and across the Pandemic as Systemic Flux website speak in ways which require new listening - a wide openness - which suspends taught theory and received expectations from dominant cultural values." murmurations.cloud/ojs/index…

I spent my childhood swimming in Slugs Bay, my teenage years camping and hiking in L-Aħrax tal-Mellieħa. It remains the one place I run away to when my brain is in overdrive. It has now been given to an armed lobby group. Stolen from us. From our future generations.
