2023 International Human Rights Day is marked on the 10th of December every year. The theme for 2023 is Freedom, Equality and Justice for all. As we join the world in wrapping up the 16 days of Advocacy against Gender-Based Violence, we commemorate with the global community as we reiterate that no form of violence should be condoned. #16DaysOfActivism #EnergyForToday #EnergyForTomorrow

But how many of us know what this term means in a practical sense? DCA’s Senior Advocacy and Government Relations Manager, Jacqueline Braw, unpacks her understanding of intersectionality and how it relates to her own intersecting identities. Take a moment to read this enlightening blog. 👉https://ow.ly/OzPz50Qvhn5 Do you have experiences of intersectionality?
