Today Karma Nirvana have written to govt calling for a statutory definition of honour-based abuse.
I strongly support the creation of a statutory definition to establish a shared understanding, help tackle & prevent HBA, and validate survivors' experiences.
Thank you Karma Nirvana

So disappointed about this news. I presented evidence to the committee in March as part of the survivor ambassador panel Karma Nirvana . The government’s rejection of our call for a statutory definition perpetuates our abuse and invalidates our experiences BBC News (UK) #honourbasedabuse
⛔️We are disappointed at the Home Office rejection of the Women & Equalities Committee recommendation for a statutory definition for #HonourBasedAbuse .
✅A statutory definition is essential to understand this issue,ensuring it receives the attention & resources it needs to protect victims.
