Day: Two

This image is free of copyrights. Feel free to use this image to raise awareness about gender based violence.

Day 2 features a photograph by Megara Tegal. This picture is about the universality of gender based violence (GBV). It’s not restricted to a particular demographic. GBV is stifling women in all societies- whether it’s verbal or physical abuse.

Watch this blog for the next 14 days. We’ll be posting a featured photograph each day till 10 December as part of WMC campaign against GBV.

Megara Tegal is a member of the steering committee of Beyond Borders. She’s a journalist, a student and a tree-hugging hippy. She blogs here- The Puppeteer. Her opinions are her own.
