They represent broken lives, journeys marked by fear and, all too often, enforced silence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What can we do?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Listen to and believe victims.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Report sexist or violent behaviour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Support organisations that fight for women's rights.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Demand stronger public policies against perpetrators.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We all have a role to play in putting an end to this violence.
