ISLAMABAD: A nationwide men’s movement for ending violence against women was launched on Friday to mark 16 days of activism.
Thousands of men and boys from over 70 districts across the country will be mobilised by the White Ribbon Pakistan in collaboration with UN Women Pakistan, the National Commission on the Status of Women (NCSW) and the Ministry of Human Rights.
According to the White Ribbon, men from all provinces and regions gathered outside local press clubs to vow to “leave no woman or girl behind” by prioritising their dignity and calling for their protection against violence. The launching ceremony of the campaign was held in Serena Hotel Islamabad.
The International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women is marked on Nov 25 every year. The day also marks the start of the ‘16 Days of Activism against Gender Based Violence’ lasting until Dec 10, the Human Rights Day.
Speaking on the occasion, Senator Farhatullah Babar said intolerance and violence was increasing day by day in Pakistan.
“Lack of access to justice, broken criminal justice system, jirgas that exclude and degrade women and misapplication of Qisas laws have further compounded violence against women,” he said.
He said pardon can be granted under the Qisas law but only after conviction and it was a misinterpretation of the law by accepting pardons even before conviction.
He suggested developing a national register to catalog crimes against women and called it ‘National register of embarrassment’.
The senator emphasised appointing special public prosecutors for crimes against women and increasing the participation of women in local governments.
Omer Aftab, the CEO of White Ribbon, said violence against women was a global phenomenon affecting one in three women, and Pakistan was no exception.
NCSW Chairperson Khawar Mumtaz said: “The NCSW has planned a national survey to monitor prevalence of violence which will serve as a baseline to check further progress.”
Secretary Ministry of Human Rights Rabiya Javeri Agha said: “Despite many government initiatives, forces of patriarchy continue to hamper women’s inclusive and sustainable growth.”
Sangeeta Thapa, the deputy representative of the UN Women Pakistan, read out UN Secretary General António Guterres’ message for the day.

Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform
you’re using? I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having a difficult time choosing
between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
I was curious if you ever thought of changing the page
layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
Youve got an awful lot of text for only having
1 or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

done an impressive activity and our entire group will be grateful to you.
Article writing is also a fun, if you be acquainted with
after that you can write or else it is complex to write.
I really like your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you create this website yourself or did you hire someone to do
it for you? Plz respond as I’m looking to construct my own blog and would like to know
where u got this from. thank you
Hi there mates, fastidious piece of writing and nice
arguments commented here, I am in fact enjoying by these.
I can be your obedient free online live adult webcams or, if you need a powerful mistress
I have to thank you for the efforts you’ve put in penning this website.
I am hoping to view the same high-grade blog posts from you later on as well.
In fact, your creative writing abilities has inspired me to get my very own blog now 😉
I am really impressed with your writing skills as well as with
the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you
customize it yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing,
it is rare to see a nice blog like this one today.
It’s amazing to visit this website and reading the views of all mates regarding this post, while I am also zealous of getting know-how.
I have read a few good stuff here. Certainly worth bookmarking for revisiting.
I wonder how a lot attempt you set to create this kind of
excellent informative web site.
I think what you said was actually very reasonable. However, think about this, what if you added a little content?
I ain’t saying your content isn’t solid., but what if you added a post title that grabbed a person’s attention? I mean Men’s movement to end violence against women launched – White Ribbon Pakistan is a
little boring. You might look at Yahoo’s home page and see how they
create article headlines to grab people to open the links.
You might try adding a video or a pic or two to grab people interested
about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it could bring your posts a little livelier.
Very good website you have here but I was curious about if you knew of any discussion boards that cover the
same topics discussed in this article? I’d really like
to be a part of online community where I can get advice from other
experienced individuals that share the same interest.
If you have any recommendations, please let me know.
Bless you!
Wow, fantastic weblog format! How lengthy have you been blogging for?
you make blogging glance easy. The overall look of your site is magnificent, as
well as the content!
