According to United Nations (UN) data, an estimated 81,100 women were murdered worldwide last year. An estimated 45,000 of these women were killed in murders committed by their husbands, boyfriends or family members. The vast majority of women who are killed are killed with firearms and sharp objects or are beaten to death and subjected to violence. Yet they have the same right to life as men in this world. Women are fragile, they are mothers, sisters, sisters, friends and wives. Every time they try to stay/be strong, they are in danger of being broken, murdered or beaten by male violence.

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.
