Gendercide Awareness Project proudly sponsors the work of Hands in Outreach, partnering to provide life-transforming access to education that profoundly impacts poor girls and women. Education disrupts and changes an endless cycle of poverty passed through generations from mother to daughter. With your support and donations, we can break the oppressive cycle of poverty that comes from being female.

When girls and women succeed, everyone benefits.

“Courage is choosing the truth and to stand for it, even if it isn’t popular, because in the end, the truth shall make you free.” – Meaza Mohammed

Journalist Meaza Mohammed founded YouTube-based @Roha_TV to deliver independent news in Ethiopia. Her coverage of the war emphasizes gender-based violence and human rights violations, interviewing dozens of women who were raped, gang-raped, or otherwise assaulted. She produced a documentary and created an NGO to liberate 17 abducted university students, who have yet not been released. She has been arrested numerous times, yet continues to document war crimes, demand the perpetrators’ prosecutions, and assist victims.

“Courage is not the lack of fear, but the ability to act in spite of it.”
– Bianka Zalewska

La exposición de arte ¡¿DÓNDE ESTÁN TODAS LAS MUJERES?!

Al enviar la exposición de arte ¡¿DÓNDE ESTÁN TODAS LAS MUJERES?! a varias ciudades de México y Guatemala, OMPP y Gendap buscan concientizar a las personas sobre el Generocidio , o “Gendercide,” que ocurre universalmente; siendo el feminicidio el rostro latinoamericano que a menudo ocurre en los siguientes contextos:

1.  como resultado de amenazas y deseos de controlar en una relación íntima
2.  como consecuencia de venganza del crimen organizado
3.  como parte del contexto de la trata de personas y la trata sexual
