Quote:The Femicide Census is a unique source of comprehensive information about women who have been killed in the UK and the men who have killed them. 

The Femicide Census, About Men’s violence against women is a leading cause of the premature death for women globally but research in the UK and Europe is limited and unconnected.  The Femicide Census significantly improves upon currently available data by providing detailed comparable data about femicides in the UK since 2009, including demographic and social factors and the methods men selected to kill women.  By collating femicides, we can see that these killings are not isolated incidents, and many follow repeated patterns.

The Maggie Oliver Foundation The Maggie Oliver Foundation (TMOF) exists to create a society where survivors and those at risk of childhood sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) are empowered to live fulfilled and successful lives, and where every survivor is treated with dignity, respect and as an equal and valued member of society.

The Maggie Oliver Foundation, The Story So Far Our founder and Chair, Maggie Oliver is best known as the Detective-turned- whistleblower who resigned from Greater Manchester Police in late 2012 in order to expose the now infamous Rochdale Grooming Scandal.

(November 9)]]> https://clovenhooves.org/showthread.php?tid=320 Fri, 01 Nov 2024 19:25:10 +0000 Clover]]> https://clovenhooves.org/showthread.php?tid=320 Quote:Pornography. Prostitution. Surrogacy. These colossal, rapacious industries are based on using women as commodities. This is often justified as a woman’s right to choose what she does with her body and that it is a private matter of no concern to anyone else. But is this really true?

If she’s been groomed by the culture from childhood to always put men’s needs before her own, or is homeless, or a student or single mum struggling in poverty, how much of a free choice does she really have? And isn’t it of public concern now we know that porn and buying sex are associated with men believing they’re superior and entitled to sexual access to women – the very attitudes that underpin male violence against women and children – especially now we are in the midst of an epidemic of such male violence?

And what about surrogacy? Does paying someone to carry a child not suggest that a child is private property and not a unique member of the community to whom we all bear a responsibility? How is that affecting society? Is it really a private matter? Who are the winners and losers in such a system?

These are some of the issues that this conference will be addressing. Come along to:

Hear women with lived experience of the sex and surrogacy industries and other experts discussing how these industries work and their personal and social impacts.
Participate in interactive workshops on a range of related themes.
Be inspired to resist and be part of a movement for change.
