CEDAW: A Tool for Ending Gender-based Violence

Conversation with Bahamian attorney-at-law and CEDAW Committee member Marion Bethel on November 29, 2021 about the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and how it can be used to end gender-based violence. Background: The Global 16 Days Campaign was started in 1991 by the Center for Women’s Global Leadership. The 16-day period starts on November 25, International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, and ends on December 10, International Human Rights Day. As a part of its strategy to end gender-based violence, Equality Bahamas participates in this campaign with a series of events, now virtual due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year’s theme, linked to the multiyear focus on violence in the world of work, is domestic violence at work. In addition, the special theme for the 30th anniversary of the global campaign is femicide. Equality Bahamas recognizes both themes, integrating them into its activities during this period and the following year. More information on 16 Days 2021 events is available at http://tiny.cc/go16 Equality Bahamas is a feminist organization that promotes women's and LGBTQI+ rights through advocacy, public education, and community engagement.
