Here’s how we can take action to help women around the world.
“What’s happening in Iran should be a galvanising moment in the fight for women’s rights,” writes Women For Women International MD Sara Bowcutt. death of Mahsa Amini
, and their courage to stand up against violence and discrimination – remind me of the bravery of women and girls the world over. We must not watch their fight in silence. Awe is not enough, and it will not move the needle on women’s rights. This should be a galvanising moment in the fight for women’s rights globally.
There is a war on women happening right now, and those who feel the brunt of it live in places experiencing violent conflict. There is still no end in sight to the crises in Syria, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Myanmar – too many. Women face the same traumas in those forgotten wars as they do in all the others, they’re just doing it without the same support and without having their voices heard.
For the last three decades we have been supporting women to find their voices. We must say enough is enough – like Angelique in DRC. Women in Iran are doing that right now, and so must we.

Long-Term Risk of Breast Cancer after Diagnosis of Benign Breast Disease by Screening MammographyAssessing the long-term risk of breast cancer after diagnosis of benign breast disease by mammography is of utmost importance to design personalised screening strategies. We analysed individual-level data from 778,306 women aged 50–69 years with at least one mammographic screening participation in any of ten breast cancer screening centers in Spain from 1996 to 2015, and followed-up until 2017. We used Poisson regression to compare the rates of incident breast cancer among women with and without benign breast disease. During a median follow-up of 7.6 years, 11,708 (1.5%) women had an incident of breast cancer and 17,827 (2.3%) had a benign breast disease. The risk of breast cancer was 1.77 times higher among women with benign breast disease than among those without (95% CI: 1.61 to 1.95). The relative risk increased to 1.99 among women followed for less than four years, and remained elevated for two decades, with relative risk 1.96 (95% CI: 1.32 to 2.92) for those followed from 12 to 20 years. Benign breast disease is a long-term risk factor for breast cancer. Women with benign breast disease could benefit from closer surveillance and personalized screening strategies.
