It's been 289 days. Since October, MADRE has been able to commit to an emergent response and collaborate with on-the-ground organizers providing urgent care and vital aid. Together, we have delivered food parcels and clean water to 180,000 people, provided health and hygiene kits to 120,000 people, funded the Palestinian Medical Relief Society so they could operate mobile clinics offering services to over 300,000 in Gaza, and more.

In April, we met with over 20 activists and legal experts in Colombia to kick off a series of convenings to develop recommendations for the Principles on the Crime of Gender Persecution (an initiative supported by Dalberg Catalyst through grant funding from The Rockefeller Foundation), a guide for governments, humanitarian rights groups, and others to prevent gender persecution and take appropriate action when it occurs. The Principles presents an opportunity to address the discrimination that leads to gender-based violence, take the term "gender persecution" beyond courtrooms, and change the way it is approached in our day-to-day. “Naming … the crime of gender persecution is definitely an opportunity to investigate the structures of power. That’s why it’s so important." Universidad de Los Andes https://bit.ly/3zm2YJE
