Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to mark the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women on 25 November.

The UK is proud to be a world leader on efforts to prevent Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) as part of our broader ambitions on gender equality. We strongly support the UN International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and plan to mark it with events across our networks, including engaging with international partners and women's rights organisations in our role as co-leader of the Generation Equality Action Coalition on Gender-based Violence. Details of the events will be publicised in due course.
