Gender-Based Violence

The Swiss Mission participates in the 16 Days of Activism against gender-based violence across Geneva and around the world. Check how some of our hosted Organizations are taking a stand against any form of GBV.

A burning issue

Swiss diplomatic personnel joined the #16Days  of activism against gender-based violence.

Violence against women and girls takes many forms, including as a weapon of war and in the form of cyberviolence; it may also exacerbated by new technologies such as AI. Together with other Gender Champions, Switzerland reaffirms its commitment to zero tolerance for any form of gender-based violence. Our partners around Geneva explained to us their point of view.
