According to the report, almost half of all women living in Africa experience violence. In the face of a catastrophic statistic like this, it\u2019s tempting to brush aside the violence experienced by women in developed countries like Canada as \u2018not that bad.\u2019<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Get ready for a few surprises.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The only major Canadian study to ever ask women about their lifetime experience of violence (conducted by Statistics Canada over twenty years ago) found 50% of all women had experienced at least one incident of physical or sexual violence since the age of 16.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, Statistics Canada reported that every night about <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.statcan.gc.ca\/pub\/85-002-x\/2011001\/article\/11495-eng.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">6,000 women and children<\/a><\/strong> are forced to sleep in a shelter because it\u2019s not safe for them to be at home. In just one year, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.statcan.gc.ca\/pub\/85-002-x\/2010002\/article\/11340-eng.htm#a3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">473,900 Canadian females<\/a><\/strong> over the age of 15 experienced a sexual assault.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/SHE-Infographic-Sexual-Assault.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-944 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/SHE-Infographic-Sexual-Assault.jpg\" alt=\"SHE Infographic - Sexual Assault\" width=\"480\" height=\"621\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/SHE-Infographic-Sexual-Assault.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/SHE-Infographic-Sexual-Assault-231x300.jpg 231w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Recently, the Canadian Women\u2019s Foundation conducted two separate studies to discover the extent of violence against women in Canada. The first study found that 67% of Canadians personally know a woman who has been sexually or physically assaulted. The second study, conducted by the University of Calgary, discovered that every hour of every day, a woman in Alberta is a victim of domestic violence from an ex-partner. (This doesn\u2019t capture all spousal violence)<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re like most Canadians, you find this situation completely unacceptable. And, if you\u2019re like most Canadians, you\u2019ll be surprised to learn that you personally pay a price for this violence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Collectively, domestic violence costs Canadians roughly $7.4 billion a year.<\/strong> According to a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.justice.gc.ca\/eng\/rp-pr\/cj-jp\/fv-vf\/rr12_7\/p2.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report<\/a> from the Department of Justice, that\u2019s the price we collectively spend on everything from police to children\u2019s mental health, from emergency room visits to funerals. Since the full costs are so hard to calculate, the report calls this \u201ca conservative estimate.\u201d The highest price, of course, is paid by the victims in legal costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and loss of life. The people close to them\u2014their children, friends, families, and employers\u2014suffer too.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s another surprise: Experts <a href=\"http:\/\/www.unicef.ca\/en\/get-involved\/traffic-is-for-cars-not-children\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">estimate<\/a> that thousands of women and girls in Canada are trafficked into forced prostitution. This is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cisc.gc.ca\/products_services\/domestic_trafficking_persons\/persons_e.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">big business<\/a>. These criminals can receive as much as $280,000 each year for each girl or woman they exploit. <strong>The average age most girls are first trafficked is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gov.mb.ca\/fs\/traciastrust\/initiatives.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">thirteen<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Last year, we took action to stop trafficking by launching our National Task Force on Trafficking of Women and Girls in Canada. The Task Force includes police officers, academics, front-line workers, and women who have been trafficked.<\/p>\n<p>Our Task Force has traveled across Canada and met with over 160 survivors and 260 organizations. Along the way, we have learned a lot about traffickers.<\/p>\n<p>Traffickers are extremely organized and methodical. They excel at exploiting the vulnerable: girls who have been abused, women who struggle with addictions, poor women with few economic alternatives, and women who face severe discrimination. Their tools include deception, coercion, and violence. At first, they may present themselves as a boyfriend. Perhaps they promise a false job opportunity and a better life. Sometimes, they even abduct their chosen victim. Once they get a woman or girl under their control, they force them to exchange sex in return for food, shelter, drugs, protection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Women and girls who are trafficked have no choice and no voice.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s one final surprise. Despite the appalling reality of trafficking and the daily violence experienced by so many women and girls in Canada, I am actually optimistic.<\/p>\n<p>There is tremendous momentum for positive change thanks to the thousands of women and girls who are finding the courage to share their stories and work together for change. We have thousands of supporters who find the status quo completely unacceptable and want to stop the violence.<\/p>\n<p>When you help a woman escape violence, it creates a \u2018ripple effect.\u2019 Not only does she and her children immediately become safer, but her children also become less likely to experience or perpetrate violence when they grow up, and so will their own children.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why we say: If you want to change the world, helping women and girls is the most intelligent investment you can make.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Because when we do, we all win.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/SHE_2_infographic-and-tips-printout_V1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-945\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/SHE_2_infographic-and-tips-printout_V1-1-776x1024.jpg\" alt=\"SHE_2_infographic and tips printout_V1-1\" width=\"621\" height=\"819\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/SHE_2_infographic-and-tips-printout_V1-1-776x1024.jpg 776w, https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/SHE_2_infographic-and-tips-printout_V1-1-227x300.jpg 227w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 621px) 100vw, 621px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>We invest in the power of women and the dreams of girls: CWF raises money to research, fund and share the best approaches to ending violence against women, moving low-income women out of poverty and building strong, resilient girls. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/CharityProfilePage.aspx?charityID=s39384&amp;Language=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learn more on their charity profile page.&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few months ago, many people were shocked at new research from the World Health Organization (WHO) that found one in three females across the &#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/giving-life\/connecting-with-charities\/violence-has-no-geographical-barriers\/\" id=\"canadahelp-blog-meta\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":3621,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[237,557,357,366,367,375],"class_list":["post-4030","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-connecting-with-charities","tag-canadian-womens-foundation","tag-guest-blog","tag-trafficking","tag-violence","tag-violence-against-women","tag-women"],"acf":{"author_bio":{"ID":943,"id":943,"title":"","filename":"Mina-Mawani-EN.jpg","filesize":240440,"url":"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/media\/Mina-Mawani-EN.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.canadahelps.org\/en\/mina-mawani-en\/","alt":"","author":"10","description":"Mina Mawani, the President and CEO of the Canadian Women\u2019s Foundation, is an empathetic and accomplished leader who is deeply committed to and passionate about women\u2019s equality issues.
