To honor the theme of the 2019 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, we asked members to share any brief stories or reflections on the ways in which women are affected by everyday sexism and sexual harassment in their professional lives.
Read their reflections below — as well as their suggestions on how to raise awareness on all forms of sexual harassment and gender inequality in the workplace. Their stories and reflections illustrate how critical it is to focus resources on ending sexism, sexual harassment and sexual exploitation in work environments, alongside work to end the many other forms of GBV to which women and girls are exposed throughout their lives.
