What is Gendercide?​

​

Gendercide is the death of females worldwide due to:
  • sex-selective abortion to favor boys over girls
  • female infanticide
  • gross neglect of young girls
  • entirely preventable maternal death
  • inability of older women to access food & shelter
  • socially sanctioned violence against women  
​

​117 million  females are missing in the world (dead) due to severe discrimination and lack of rights. That's more deaths than World War I and World War II combined.
​
That's 3.4% of the global female population -- gone.


​Source -- United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), 2010 World Census
​

​
​We lose ​3.5 million females each year.
Picture
The biggest losses occur at the beginning and end of life.
  • Almost 50% -- sex-selective abortion (female feticide) 
  • Almost 30% -- women over age 50, especially widows,
​                             die prematurely

The Gendercide Awareness Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit based in Dallas, Texas. 
Note: We are neither pro-life nor pro-choice; we are strictly neutral regarding that controversy. Happily, most everyone agrees that gendercide must end. We welcome all individuals in fighting the extreme devaluation of women that causes gendercide.
