Six girls from different countries talk about their experiences of sexual violence in and around school. Produced, and at times filmed by other young people* this film is an honest and intimate look at school related gender based violence. The film focuses on girls born in the year 2000 as part of series "Millennium Children" that looks at how the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) have benefited or failed them. As we reach the end date of the MDGs and set out new targets, young people from across the globe conclude that school-related gender-based violence (SRGBV) is destroying girls' education and that the issue needs to be addressed - fast. SRGBV limits enrolment, undermines participation, and increases dropout rates due to fear of violence and underage pregnancy. Girls should not have to live in fear. Let them learn and achieve their dreams. Hear the voices of the Millennium Children and vote now to unlock the power of girls: http://plan-international.org/Girl4President #Girl4President * Plan youth from the engagement project 'Global Voice for Change' played a key part in the Millennium Children video, trained by Plan staff to be interviewers and camera operatives. This unique project seeks to give 15-year-olds a voice, and at the same time train other young people to report, produce and film their stories.

Human Rights Watch has long documented the problem of sexual assault in Cairo's streets and particularly at protests. A new video highlights the stories of women who have been attacked, in some cases as recently as January. http://www.hrw.org/news/2013/07/03/egypt-epidemic-sexual-violence

In episode 5, Ben tackles the growing problem of male rape. While the vast majority of sexual violence is committed against girls and women, it is wrong to assume that rape is a purely a male-perpetrator, female victim crime. Ben suggests that male rape needs to be added to debates on sexual violence. He argues that it's virtually invisible at present and if it is ever discussed, it is with hushed tones as if it is a taboo. What do you think? Do we need to break the silence on this subject?

The SEED community mentoring program, GirlZtalk, offers support, education and advice to women from the rural communities of Limpopo. Matsupishu is a student member with experience of sexual abuse, before she decided to take action. "These guys took away my power, but only for a moment. Because I decided, I made a conscious decision: I am going to take my power back". In a climate where a tiny percentage of sexual crimes are followed by successful prosecutions, grass roots feminism often offers the only way for women to come together, share their experiences and give each other support. And members of organisations like GirlZtalk are optimistic about facing up to the challenge. "If we start standing up and start talking about it enough, then it will eventually come to an end".

Sexual harassment has only recently been criminalized in the country, and the first arrests were made shortly after the video surfaced. Though it's been a problem for decades, since the start of the revolution in 2011 there has been a rise of mob sexual assaults on women. There have been a reported 250 cases of "mass sexual rape and mass sexual assaults" between November 2012 and January 2014, according to statement from a coalition of women's rights groups. And according to UN statistics, 99.3 percent of Egypt's female population has faced some form of sexual harassment, leaving the country with what has been labeled a sexual harassment "epidemic." The public and various women's NGOs have criticized the state for doing little to tackle the issue of sexual violence. VICE News headed to a demonstration organized on June 14 by various women's rights activists, who are demanding the Egyptian state build an effective action plan to tackle the issue of sexual violence in the country.

Worldwide, at least one in three women has experienced some form of sexual violence. It is a traumatic experience for the individual, and some victims are subjected to both sexual and physical violence. The result is short and long-term consequences for a woman's physical, mental, and sexual and reproductive health, affecting her capacity to be an active member in society. MSF and the care for victims of sexual violence Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) medical teams treated over 11,000 victims of sexual violence in 91 projects, in 29 countries, in 2014. Over 90 per cent of them were women and girls; less than 10 per cent were men and boys. More than two-thirds of our sexual violence patients come from three countries: Kenya, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Zimbabwe. The majority of victims are under 18 years of age.Our assistance to victims of sexual violence starts with free and confidential medical and psychological care. In many of the settings where we work, there is limited similar assistance. Our purpose is to alleviate victims’ suffering and support their recovery and resumption of daily life. We are committed to incorporating sexual violence services in all our women’s health projects, and to increasing provision of sexual violence care in emergency response. http://www.msf.ca/en/issue/sexual-and-gender-based-violence
