Why was WWSF created? - Pourquoi la FSMF a-t-elle été créé?

Recognizing that women, children and youth represent the world’s largest constituency  (75%) who have little to say in co-designing the economic and political space in which they live. It is imperative that their thoughts and visions, skills, concrete and effective participation in development, and their deep aspiration for a more just and peaceful world be considered to help catalyze the necessary political will for the transformation of systems and structures into pathways of equality, sustainable development and peace.
Reconnaissant que les femmes, les enfants et les jeunes représentent la plus grande circonscription au monde (75%) qui n’ont pas grand-chose à dire pour façonner l’espace économique et politique dans lequel ils vivent. Il est impératif que leurs pensées et leur visions, compétences concrets et participation effective au développement durable ainsi que leur aspiration profonde à un monde plus juste et plus pacifique soient envisagées pour aider à catalyser la volonté politique nécessaire à la transformation des systèmes et des structures en voies d’égalité, de développement et de paix.

Eliminating violence and abuse against women and youth

  • Link to Website : www.ruban-blanc.ch
  • WWSF created the Swiss branch of the White Ribbon Campaign (globally are over 60 countries with national Hubs) ensuring that men, women and youth declare: ”I pledge not to commit, nor condone,  nor remaining silent about violence and abuse against women and youth, especially in domestic situations.
  • After 13 years of campaigning in English, French and German, the White Ribbon Committee CH decided to take a break and assess progress made in eliminating gender-based violence especially domestic violence. Children witnessing domestic violence are marked for life and very often introduce the same behavior in their relationship later in life. It’s time to change our culture of tolerating continued gender-based violence.
