APMDD Statement for Women’s Month 2021: 
Women, Fight for Survival, Justice, the End to Inequality and Tyranny, and for a Safe Planet!
Poverty, economic marginalization and exploitation render women more vulnerable to gender-based violence and pull women down in their uphill climb to fully enjoy their rights. Access to and control over land and resources remain a significant barrier for many women in Asia.
The APMDD stands in solidarity with women all over the world in raising their voice against all forms of gender-based violence and in calling for an end to the systemic discrimination, marginalization and exploitation that millions of women in Asia contend with every day.
APMDD Statement: "16 Days of Activism to End Gender-Based Violence" – Amidst Multiple Crises: Women's fight for survival, safety, security and system change
We invite you to join us in our campaign for #TaxJustice and #WomensRights!
