The Not One Less movement started in Argentina after the murder of a 14-year-old pregnant girl. Thousands of women in Argentina took to the streets with “Ni Una Menos” signs meaning “Not one less” to demand systematic change in a country where a woman is killed every 32 hours, data shows. The movement has spread beyond the borders of Argentina with branches in New York, Berlin, Italy, Brazil, Costa Rica, Ecuador and elsewhere.
