The #manosphere is not fringe anymore. It can shape how boys see relationships, women, and themselves. For parents and caregivers, this can be difficult to navigate. This #GlobalDayOfParents, see our guide on how to talk to teens about the manosphere: unwo.men/r8TC50Z6plJ

The #FIFAWorldCup should bring joy, not fear. But for many, major sporting events also bring increased risk of violence at home. As the world enjoys the beautiful game, @UN_Women Goodwill Ambassador @KarlaSouza7 has a message: Passion is #NoExcuse for violence. #EqualPlay

Marsha P. Johnson didn’t just ask a question. She challenged the world to do better. This #PrideMonth, we celebrate the activists, advocates and communities who continue to fight for a future where everyone can live freely, safely and equally. 🌈

When does "a lot of time online" become too much? 🚩 When online spaces replace real-world connection, pay attention. For boys who feel disconnected, the #manosphere can feel like an answer. That's what makes it worth understanding. 🔗 Know the signs: unwo.men/Wrgg50Z8Vqk

53.4% of confirmed #Ebola cases in #DRCongo and #Uganda are women and girls. To change course, women and girls must be protected, resourced and included in every stage of the response. 🔗 See our full statement: unwo.men/3gSr50ZblaN #ForAllWomenAndGirls

In #Haiti, women and girls pay the highest price for gang violence. Safe houses offer hope. But hope must be matched with action, funding and lifesaving services. Women and girls need safety—not just resilience. See our statement: unwo.men/MJ0I50Zb4vb #ForAllWomenAndGirls

Somewhere right now, a girl is watching her first #WorldCup match. ⚽ She deserves a game that sees her back. Football’s biggest stage is a chance to show every woman and girl that she belongs. 🔗 See why this moment matters: unwo.men/JbZn50ZaAa7 #FIFAWorldCup #EqualPlay
