Violence against women and girls remains a pervasive and abhorrent reality in the 21st century, with one in three women expected to encounter violence or sexual abuse in their lifetimes. In light of this alarming statistic, our esteemed guest, Lisa Shannon, co-founder and CEO of Every Woman Treaty, joins Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro to discuss the urgent need for a comprehensive treaty aimed at eradicating such violence. Every Woman Treaty, a formidable coalition of over 4,000 advocates across 169 nations, is tirelessly working to establish a legally binding international framework to protect the rights and safety of women and girls. During our conversation, we delve into the critical interventions necessary for effective change and the collective actions we can undertake to support this vital cause. Together, we explore how grassroots mobilization and individual commitment can contribute significantly to this global endeavor.
