Food security is a matter of equality. Yet, restrictive gender norms and women’s limited access to resources still get in the way. 👉 See the latest #GenderData in the 2025 Gender Snapshot report: bit.ly/3WmDRhZ #ForAllWomenAndGirls #GlobalGoals

Over the last 2 years in #Gaza, 2 women and girls were killed every hour. Today, 1M+ require food aid & 250,000 need urgent nutritional support. 1 in 7 Gazan families is led by a woman. There will be no recovery without women and girls, says @SofiaCalltorp of @UN_Women.
