    Access to safe, modern contraception saves lives. More than 60% of all maternal deaths occur in humanitarian and fragile settings. In many parts of the world, women and girls cannot say no to sex—but in humanitarian crises, the risk is even greater. Violence against women, including sexual violence, nearly doubles in these settings. Without access to contraception, many women are powerless to prevent pregnancy, even when lifesaving maternal healthcare is scarce. Contraception saves lives, which is why it’s a vital part of our humanitarian efforts. Thank you, Ms. Magazine for giving us a platform to discuss this critical issue. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eTF8pxCK ?? ? P.S. The U.S. government recently made the heartbreaking decision to terminate funding for UNFPA’s lifesaving work—including our humanitarian efforts.

    Last week, the U.S. government terminated all funding agreements made with UNFPA, the United Nations sexual and reproductive health agency. This week, U.S. funded programs around the world are coming to a halt. Associated Press highlighted just two of the many UNFPA programs that are being impacted by this funding termination.

    The U.S. government has terminated all funding agreements for UNFPA, the United Nations sexual and reproductive health agency. In total, this equals approximately $377 million lost. The impact that this will have on the women and girls we serve will be devastating. Here's our full statement on the funding cuts: https://buff.ly/r0n3xxa

    Today marks three years since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Since then, millions have been uprooted from their homes, violence has skyrocketed, and women have had to give birth wherever they can find safety — whether in subway stations or bomb shelters. The last three years have been nothing short of traumatic for women and girls in Ukraine. But thanks to our community, we have been able to be there providing lifesaving care. Already this winter, we have been able to: ?? Reach 345,980 people with sexual and reproductive health services ??Distribute 20,800 UNFPA Dignity Kits and Mama Kits to women, girls, and new mothers surviving the cold ??Support 312 health care facilities, including underground bomb-proof maternity wards, and 129 UNFPA Safe Spaces Thank you for standing with women and girls in Ukraine, for the past three years and beyond. ??

    500 days ago, a Hamas-led attack on Israel triggered a devastating humanitarian crisis in Gaza. For 500 days, people in Gaza have endured extreme violence, displacement, catastrophic levels of hunger and more. But there is a bright spot amidst all of the despair – thanks to the current ceasefire, we have been able to rush aid into Gaza and begin to treat the hundreds of thousands of people in need of humanitarian aid. Since the ceasefire came into place, we've rushed close to 100 trucks of lifesaving supplies, such as medicines to prevent hemorrhaging during childbirth, into Gaza. In January alone, we provided services to 66,500 people and supported 12 hospitals. But now, due to the current U.S. funding freeze on foreign aid, this crucial work is grinding to a halt. This is the wrong time to be scaling back our lifesaving work in Gaza. If you would like to make an emergency donation to help fund our care, you can give here: https://buff.ly/49kwTy8

    Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a violation of a girl's rights, dignity, and autonomy. It's an incredibly dangerous procedure that can cause lifelong complications -- from severe pain and childbirth risks to psychological trauma. Although FGM is banned in several countries, it remains a pervasive practice. This year alone, 4.4 million girls are at risk of being cut. It's time to #EndFGM. Read our latest article to learn more about FGM and how we're working to end ALL incidents of violence against women: https://buff.ly/40MDU8D

    ?? FUNDING FREEZE: The Trump Administration has frozen all foreign aid for 90 days. This stop work order is different from the defunding moment that we have been bracing for. In the event of a defunding, we would not receive any NEW funding from the U.S. government. But this funding freeze means that there is a COMPLETE suspension on already-approved funds that women and girls around the world are counting on. Hundreds of programs will likely be impacted by the freeze, including: ??Our sexual and reproductive healthcare in Afghanistan, which employs 1,700 female health workers and serves over 9 million people. ??Our mobile health teams in Gaza, which serves 50,000 pregnant women. ??Our psychological care and violence prevention services in Ukraine, which serves 400,000 women and girls. And so much more. To make an immediate difference for women and girls, rush a donation here: https://buff.ly/49kwTy8
