GREAT NEWS: yesterday, Andorra became the 10th member state to ratify the #IstanbulConvention, which will enter into force on the 1st of August 2014! This ratification marks a new era in the promotion and protection of #women’s human rights in #Europe and beyond! The first European treaty on violence against women and domestic violence, the Convention closes the gap in the protection of fundamental #humanrights of women by requiring states parties to prevent violence, protect its victims, prosecute the perpetrators, and to co-ordinate any such measures through comprehensive policies. #endVAW #endDV #endGBV
