Today, a small but passionate group demonstrated against femicide in Australia. The rally took place outside Sydney Town Hall, Gadigal Land.
More women were murdered last year in Australia since records began, with 78 women killed in gender-based violence im 2024. This number is only two fewer than the amount of women murdered in the United Kingdom in the same period, a country with a population almost three times as great as Australia.
Australian Femicide Watch claim these figures are under-quoted, and the true number of women killed in gender-based violence in Australia is actually 101.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women are disproportionately represented in these numbers.
