Following the rape and murder of two women in Senegal, we’re turning our outrage into action.

Artist and campaigner Black Queen is launching a public campaign with ONE, calling on the Senegalese government to criminalise rape and protect victims of gender-based violence.

Only a massive wave of public support will push the government to act quickly and boldly. Sign and share the petition now!

Dear Malick Sall, Minister of Justice of Senegal; Dear Ndèye Sali Diop Dieng, Minister of Women’s Affairs, Family Affairs and Gender of Senegal,

We call on you to make every effort to enact and implement as soon as possible a law criminalizing rape in Senegal. In the face of renewed violence against women, it is time to act decisively to protect women and girls.
