A Week of Action

with the Global Campaign for Equality in Family Law

Dear Friends,

Greetings! This year for the International Day of Families on May 15th, the Global Campaign for Equality in Family Law
(GCEFL) ( [link removed] )is observing a ‘Week of Action’
between May 15 - 19th and we invite you to join our efforts in ending discrimination in family law.

The GCEFL is a coalition of 8 leading women's rights, human rights, and faith-based organizations with the mission to pursue
equality for women, girls, and marginalized groups in matters related to the family, regardless of religion and culture. We
firmly believe that equality within the family serves as the foundation for building an equal society.

Discriminatory laws and practices persist globally, limiting the rights of women and girls in areas such as marriage,
inheritance, and economic opportunities. These injustices must be addressed through strategic global efforts.

Week of Action Initiatives:

Sharing your stories and campaigns

During this ‘Week of Action’, we invite organisations and individuals keen on seeing family law reform to participate in our
online campaign and to share responses in tweets, posts or video format to the following prompts using the hashtag
#FreeOurFamilyLaws:

* In what ways are family laws in your country/region unequal towards women and girls and what is the impact of this
discrimination?

* What is your call for change?

Posters: Additionally, there are downloadable campaign posters available for download below, for you to write out the
specific issue and or share a message about what equality in the family means to you. These posters can be shared on your
individual or organisational social media channels for amplification. Kindly post with the hashtag #FreeOurFamilyLaws and tag
the GCEFL Twitter account @equalfamilylaws ( [link removed] ) if shared via Twitter.
