A new strategy for tackling violence against women – where do we start?
The UK government is committed to halving violence against women and girls (VAWG) in a decade. To do so will require a fundamental shift in how it interacts with businesses and civil society.

Leadership in Parliament is not just for men
For me, International Women’s Day is twofold: it’s a day to advocate for the rights of women facing adversity, and to highlight the issues disproportionally faced by women and girls around the world.
