Combating all forms of violence against women and girls remains a key priority for the European Union.
EU Charge d’Affaires Johnny Engell-Hansen says that the EU is firmly committed to strengthen its effort in order to make gender-based violence a problem of the past.
Engell-Hansen says they believe that there cannot be sustainable development without women’s empowerment and this cannot be achieved without eliminating all forms of violence against all women and girls.
With the 16 Days of Activism against Gender‑based Violence currently taking place, French Ambassador to Fiji Michel Djokovic acknowledges the initiatives supported by the Fijian government and all relevant stakeholders including the establishment of a domestic violence helpline in Fiji.
The Activism will end on the 10th of next month.
