To mark the #InternationalWorkingWomensDay2022 on March 8, as in dozens of other cities, night marches are held in #Istanbul to #protest #violence against #women and the decline of #womensrights. Like every year in #Istanbul, #women gather for this at the #Taksim Square. Image
This year, however, no permission was granted for the action, wherefore the #Turkish #police started to take preventive "measures" since yesterday, and installed #police barricades at many points of the large square. Image
While footage in #Taksim revealed the #Turkish government's pure fear of the #women's marches, a contradictory picture was revealed behind the blockades on the #Istiklal Street where #police was handing out #flowers to the #women. Image

1/. “Ten years after the #IstanbulConvention was signed, women are speaking today with one voice to demand that the Turkish authorities reverse a decision that will put the safety & even the lives of millions of women & girls in peril.” @AgnesCallamard amnesty.org/en/latest/news…
2/. “Since the announcement that #Turkey will quit the Istanbul Convention, women in Turkey & around the world are coming together. Rather than being cowed, women have been on the streets. Rather than being discouraged women have been galvanised” @amnesty
3/. Since the intention pull out of the #IstanbulConvention was announced, women have been protesting.

In Amsterdam, campaigners laid out 70 pairs of red shoes, each pair symbolising one of the 70 women killed as a result of domestic violence in Turkey since the start of 2021.

1/. At a time when many countries are starting to try & find ways of combating violence against women, #Turkey has just pulled out of #IstanbulConvention

This is the Convention on violence against women

Ironic that it is named after the city in #Turkey. theguardian.com/world/2021/mar…
2/. #Turkey’s withdrawal from the #IstanbulConvention is deeply worrying, coming at time when #COVID19 measures/lockdowns have led to a spike in reports of violence

Many women & girls trapped at home with their abusers or unable to easily access safety #VAWG #istanbulsoezlesmesi
3/ Turkey’s withdrawal from the #IstanbulConvention will have disastrous consequences for millions of women & girls & to organizations providing vital support to survivors of sexual assault & domestic violence

#Turkey should reconsider this awful decision

a thread about what is happening to turkish women:

#İstanbulSözleşmesi
#AklınızdanBileGecirmeyin
turkey was the first country to adopt a 2011 council of europe convention on gender-based violence and domestic violence, a groundbreaking legal framework designed to protect victims and effectively prosecute offenders, known as the Istanbul Convention

#İstanbulSözleşmesi
Since then, however, even basic rights and protections won by Turkish women have come under threat as Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s conservative Justice and Development party (AKP) has tried to repeal Istanbul Convention by claiming it disrespects the religion

Bu flood annemin, Methiye'nin hikayesidir.

Bir çocuğu olarak bu hikayeyi anlatmamı sağlayan İsmail Saymaz ve Sözcü Gazetesi'ne, bu süreçte destek olan herkese teşekkür ederim.

Kız kardeşim telefonla aramıştı beni, 7 Nisan 2019 akşamıydı. Sesi tedirgindi.
Ne olduğunu sorduğumda babamız yengemizle berabermiş dedi.

İdrak etmek için biraz zorlandım. Anlamadım uzun bir süre. Emin misin dedim. Kendisi söyledi dedi.
Biraz sindirip annemi aradım hemen. Annem dedim duyduklarım doğru mudur? Doğrudur dedi, peki annem dedim, ben babamı da arayacağım. Onunla bir konuşacağım dedim.

📌At least 7500 #femicide cases reported
📌More than 100.000 women were sexually assaulted
📌There were over 200.000 sexual harassment cases in courts.
