Rape Culture Can't Heal Us | Marva Zohar | TEDxOxford

If we can't eradicate rape culture from our modern society, we should at least take care of its victims better. But how? Marva Zohar is one of them and she's got a plan.
Marva Zohar is a passionate Feminist activist dedicated to women’s mental and reproductive health worldwide. She is currently on an international speaking tour, promoting the realisation of her vision: "Land Where Women Heal". Marva is a conscientious objector to Israel’s mandatory military draft. She is a leader in Israel's Freedom of Birth Movement, has established a hotline for survivors of obstetric violence, and speaks internationally on women’s reproductive rights. Marva has served as a midwife in three continents, and whilst working among refugees in Africa, she has promoted the training of leaders as advocates for gender-based violence survivors.
