Take part in #CSW66!
On Friday 25 March at 11 AM EST, join Zonta International and Zonta District 27 for a conversation how Russia’s invasion of Ukraine highlights the effects of armed conflict on civilian women. Women and children are disproportionally impacted, as millions are forced to flee for their lives, separated from their loved ones, traumatized, and targeted for exploitation and abuse. At the same time, women are also at the forefront of the humanitarian response, grassroot volunteering initiatives and advocacy.

DAY 16: PM’s call to change the way some men think they own women

From: ABC News, Jane Norman, posted Monday 6 September 2021
Prime Minister Scott Morrison has conceded Australia “has a problem” with the way it treats women, describing a culture that not only excuses and justifies gender inequality but ultimately leads to violence against women.
Opening the two-day National Summit on Women’s Safety, Mr Morrison promised to be “open-minded and ambitious” and said victims and survivors would be “foundational” as the government develops the next national plan to reduce violence against women.
“Right now, too many Australian women do not feel safe and too often, they are not safe and that is not OK. There is no excuse, and sorry doesn’t cut it,” he said.
“There is still an attitude, a culture that excuses and justifies, ignores or condones gender inequality that drives ultimately violence against women, and that is on all of us.”
The Prime Minister said the collective goal was not just to reduce violence against women but to end it, describing the number of women killed by their current or former partners as a “national shame”.
“I don’t believe we can talk about women’s safety without talking about men,” he said.
“About the way some men think they own women.
“About the way women are subjected to disrespect, coercion, and violence.”
DAY 15: Violence against women in the mining industry

A survey of workers conducted by the Western Mine Worker’s Alliance (WMWA) shows that workers are experiencing sexual harassment in FIFO workplaces at unacceptable levels.
It is of great concern that nearly one in four female survey participants reported that they had experienced physical acts of sexual assault and two-thirds had experienced verbal sexual harassment while working in the FIFO mining industry.
Alarmingly, just four in 10 women Fl FO workers believed workers are encouraged to report sexual harassment and half believed workers are not supported through the reporting process.
WMWA’s survey shows that a significant proportion of workers are subject to a range of behaviours ranging from physical assault to unwanted sexual advances and inappropriate conversation or behaviour.
Of survey participants, 36% of women and 10% of men said they had experienced some form of sexual harassment within the last 12 months.
