2nd week of #WarsawHDC. Gender equality is a core value of the EU and cornerstone of OSCE's comprehensive approach to security. We thank civil society for its decisive work for gender equality, including the prevention and elimination of violence against women and girls.

At #WarsawHDC Sweden co-hosted side-event, Voices in Exile, with OSCE Group of Friends on the Safety of Journalists & @oscemediafreedom.bsky.social on threats faced by journalists in exile. Even in exile, they face harassment, surveillance & reprisals. Media freedom must be protected everywhere.
