The poster tackles the issue of stalking by utilizing a situational visual pun inspired by the lyrics "Jaha me jati hu wahi chale aatey ho." a popular Bollywood song from the movie Chori Chori (1956). It showcases a woman's persistent shadow, metaphorically representing the unwelcome presence of a stalker, shedding light on the need to address this serious concern. National Crime Records Bureau, India data reveals a surge in stalking cases in India, with 9,285 reported in 2021, averaging nearly one case per hour or 25 per day.

Stop killing women


According to UN Women, 2022 was the year in which the most women were intentionally murdered to date: nearly 89,000. Of these ‘Around 48,800 women and girls worldwide were killed by their intimate partners or other family members (including fathers, mothers, uncles and brothers). This means that, on average, more than 133 women or girls are killed every day by someone in their own family.’
If it’s not bad enough that femicide is increasing, the real statistic is probably much higher: ‘for roughly four in ten intentional murders of women and girls, there is not enough information to identify them as gender-related killings because of national variation in criminal justice recording and investigation practices’.
This must change. So this year, we want to ask your help in drawing attention to all forms of violence against women: for the world to stop killing women.
