Footage's @kaeglinton.bsky.social calls for compassion in policy making. "Compassion bridges our shared humanity, deepens connections, and profoundly impacts...health. Often dismissed as idealistic, compassion is...a necessary force for advancing global policy frameworks."

Footage launched our trauma-informed messaging service FemSMS for those displaced and at risk of gender-based violence shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. More than 10,000 are now signed up to to the service. Liberation covered the initiative last July.

We are immensely indebted to all who continue, with true compassion, to support FemSMS and enable us to keep showing up as we witness broken promises and violent fractures of trust and solidarity, causing immediate, real, and devastating impacts on already fragile and precarious contexts.
