"El grupo anti-derechos que disemina el discurso de la 'ideología de género' a menudo usa tácticas de miedo y retrata a los niños como víctimas potenciales" - Fernando D'Elio de @AkahataOrg @SexualRights #HRC38 #RightsAtRisk
Ivana Radačić from the Working Group on DAW paints a varied global picture. In some countries, such as Ireland and Argentina, we're seeing progress whereas in other countries were seeing long-secured rights being questioned #RightsAtRisk #HRC38

.@PSalwanDaher: "If we want to be intersectional, movement-building is crucial. If we are serious about "Nothing about us without us," we need to put at the center the women who are the most affected by the issues we work on, let them speak and listen." #HRC38 #RightsAtRisk
