Ending Gender-based Violence & the Domestic Abuse Bill

This week's episode is in honour of International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women on 25th November, which marks the beginning of the United Nations' '16 Days of Activism' campaign against gender-based violence.

We are joined by YF members Amy Dwyer, Emily Batchelor and Tina Bhartwas for a discussion about the Domestic Abuse Bill and whether it goes far enough; the horrific impact the pandemic has had on victims of domestic abuse; the UN's campaign and importance of a worldwide approach to ending gender-based violence, and much more...

Also - a very warm welcome and thanks to Marie Hill who has recently joined the podcast team and co-hosted this episode!
