Women shouldn't have to anticipate violence.
This month marks three years since the EU joined the Istanbul Convention, a landmark treaty recognising gender-based violence against women as a violation of human rights.
It sets out concrete measures to prevent it, to protect victims, and hold perpetrators accountable.
Our goal is clear: a world where women can live free from fear. 🧡

One would suppose by the phrasing that other kinds of gendered based violence is not a violation of human rights.
Please explain explained when terror living under the threat of violence is tolerable for anyone.
