Answer of Question 4.

In the social media world, ‘hashtag’ vastly opens an opportunity to deliver concerns about social injustice acts or activities for individuals, groups, and companies willing to bring change in societies. It consists of a short phrase or compound of words with a mark # for the audiences eye-catching. Parallelly, the internet played a vital role in spreading ‘hashtag’ movements or campaigns momentum around the world like a fire (Gungapersand, 2021). Following is the example of ‘hashtag’ – a powerful tool of social media:  

#OrangeTheWorld – every year since 1991, United Nations (UN) Women launched 16 days of public awareness movements from 25 November to 16 December with the aim to develop women violence free society till 2030 (UN Women (2019). The main aim behind this strong ongoing hashtag movement is to bring knowledge and prevention against violence women and girls usually face in the form of psychological, verbal, sexual, physical, or common violence (Clariane, 2023).

The interesting fact associated with this social injustice hashtag is that – each year, it can be introduced by numerous other hashtag options like #HearMeTo, #16daysofactivism, #25nov, #IDEVAW, etc (UNESCO, NA). Following are the screenshots of some #OrangeTheWorld events held over the world in 2022-2023 that shows hashtag significance, evidence and relevancy to the subject discussed.

This social injustice campaign empowered global women to fight against the violence they facing year by year as in 2021, 6000 organizations and around 187 world countries joined #OrangeTheWorld (PeopleinNeed,2021). According, to other statistics, the Hashtag #OrangeTheWorld is usually searched by 25 to 34-year-old females in English, Spanish, and German languages (ForDisplayPurposesOnly,2024).

The #OrangeTheWorld influence has shown in two aspects through screenshots of different social media platforms -first, women and girls get the power of voice to stop gender-based violence without fear. Second, men's participation in various women's violence hashtag movements brings a change in society as they feel ashamed in the future if conducting any violence.

International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women 

On November 25, 1960, the Mirabal sisters of the Dominican Republic were assassinated by henchmen of dictator Rafael Trujillo. The sisters, who had been active in movements against the Trujillo regime, were beaten and strangled to death, then placed in a Jeep that was driven off a mountainous road in order to make their deaths appear accidental. In December 1999, the United Nations General Assembly designated November 25 as the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. The date marks the beginning of 16 days of remembrance and activism, culminating in International Human Rights Day.

According to a report by the United Nations, 19 percent of women between the ages of 15 and 49 years of age have experienced physical and/or sexual violence “by an intimate partner.” In some cases, this violence ends in the women’s death.

#InternationalVolunteersDay: Advocating for a Brighter Yemen

On this #InternationalVolunteersDay, let us reflect on the power of volunteering to transform lives, especially in countries like Yemen, where the need for support, solidarity, and hope is immense.

Volunteers are the backbone of humanitarian efforts in Yemen, helping communities navigate challenges such as food insecurity, lack of education, health crises, displacement, and gender-based violence. Their dedication not only alleviates immediate suffering but also lays the foundation for resilience and sustainable development.

Now more than ever, Yemen needs volunteers who are ready to step up, lend a hand, and bring hope to families striving to survive and rebuild. By working together, we can address critical needs, foster unity, and pave the way for a brighter future for all.

Volunteering is not just an act of kindness—it is a commitment to humanity and a belief in the potential of every individual to make a difference. Let’s continue to champion the spirit of volunteerism in Yemen and beyond.

Your small action can lead to big change. Let’s build hope together!

[fight-4-my-life]

It's quite late in the day to make this post, but today, November 25 is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. It marks the beginning of 16 days of activism fighting for the end of gender-based violence worldwide.

Violence happens among all genders all over the world, and there is so much work that needs to be done to secure human rights for other marginalized groups, but it has been reported that nearly half the world's population is female (this may be because of under-reporting by the LGBTQIA+ population of the world, but it is still important to consider).

I have spent much of my educational journey, both formally and informally, learning about all of the struggles of women and girls in countries all over the world who face all kinds of barriers to happy, healthy, and joyful lives and gender-based violence is among one of the most significant obstacles the women and girls of the world face.

It is almost guaranteed that at any point in time you will be in contact with multiple women and girls who are struggling with gender-based violence of some kind, either by strangers, or more often than that, in their own families

That is why I am taking up this cause. It is a part of my larger educational journey, and part of my responsibility as a human being in this world. As a human being who was born female, and who is female passing, despite being nonbinary, it is also a personal issue for me, because the world sees me as a female first. As a female who is no longer in a position where I am experiencing violence due to my gender, I also have a duty to fight for the rights of others around me who are.

Except to see something about this daily from now until December 10th, then I will still be making updates every now and then as it becomes necessary.
