No More Violence Against Women; the podcast of the WAVE Network.

In this podcast, WAVE voices are amplified to give insight on topics such as sexualised violence, online violence, femicides, violence against women with disabilities, youth activism, important legislation such as the Istanbul Convention, and more to highlight the different forms and dimensions of violence against women and girls.

In this episode, 3rd generation WAVE Youth Ambassador Ines Consonni (Portugal/Italy) has a conversation with her friend Farah Abou Harb, a Political Science graduate working as a women, peace and security program analyst in the field of peace process support. Farah, who was born and raised in Lebanon, gives insight into the state of women’s rights, gender (in)equality and violence against women and girls in the MENA region, particularly in Lebanon. Despite different contexts, the two connect over the importance of fighting for women’s rights as a collective responsibility that all societies must consider crucial.
