#Day5 #20DayCountDown This video inspired #ThePuzzleWomen It has ALL the trigger warnings, but if you want to understand the women, their children & the lives they led behind the statistics (4 women killed each WEEK) then I would encourage you to watch
This video was produced in 2013 - when 164 women were killed (86 by a male partner / ex-partner)
In 2019 - 214 women were killed. The femicide census offers a nuanced look at why these women were killed and this shows a pattern:

"By viewing these cases of femicide all together, we can learn what needs to be done to reduce, and ultimately prevent, the killing of women by men."
Please take a few moments to read, watch, share or listen to the families, friends & children left behind.

And as 76% of women were killed by someone they knew, perhaps share this thread, using the women's aid link https://www.womensaid.org.uk/information-support/what-is-domestic-abuse/ because (often) you don't know you are in an abusive relationship until its too late.
