AGAINST MY WILL
CHILD MARRIAGE. FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION. GENDER-BIASED SEX SELECTION.
DEFYING THE PRACTICES THAT HARM WOMEN AND GIRLS AND UNDERMINE EQUALITY
UNFPA, the UN’s sexual and reproductive health agency, invites you to a special series of events marking the Asia-Pacific launch of our annual flagship global report.
This year we focus on harmful practices against women and girls – practices that are seen, to one extent or another, the world over – jeopardising the lives, health and wellbeing of millions.
Join globally-renowned experts, advocates and activists as we discuss the challenges as well as the opportunities in eliminating these practices and creating a better world.
Tune in to three very special hour-long events live on Facebook and YouTube:
Tuesday, June 30, 3pm Bangkok
Against my will: SWOP Report overview and Too Young to Wed: Ending child marriage in Asia and the Pacific
