Isn’t it ironic how people are so “connected” through Facebook, Twitter, What’s App, and Instagram, yet sometimes it’s actually very hard to reach someone in person? When was the last time you made a phone call? This is why so many people that are well-connected can still feel alone. This is why sharing your voice during these 16 Days of Activism is exactly what we are asking you to do. In this case, we are asking you to use social media to advance the key messages around this campaign against Gender-Based Violence. Like or share what you are reading right now, with your network and take a stand against inequity. Who knows, one click on the share button and an important message might reach a new mother who just created her first Twitter account and learned about what to do when she experiences violence in her home. It might also reach a bullied teenager from just down the road who is having second thoughts about attending school and suddenly learning about who they can approach to ask for help. You might save a life today. Your click counts. Use your voice to raise all voices standing today against domestic violence. #CallItFemicide
