The number of Syrians who have fled their war-ravaged country and are seeking assistance has now topped the 1 million mark, the U.N. refugee agency said Wednesday March 6, warning that Syria is heading towards a \"full-scale disaster.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThis image of a Syrian refugee woman was taken in a refugee camp near Azaz, north of Aleppo province, Syria, on Sunday, Feb. 17, 2013. \u003cbr/\u003e2.

Thousands of women and children in various cities in the country danced in the streets, in malls and other places to express support for the One Billion Rising movement, a worldwide call to end violence against women and girls. Earlier this year the gang rape and death of a young woman shocked India and triggered widespread protests. \u003cbr/\u003e8.

Mali Infanticide -In this Wednesday, July 6, 2011 photo, domestic worker Tabita, 18, holds her young son Jean Claude at the offices of organisation Muso Danbe in Bamako, Mali. Tabita sought help from the NGO after she says she was drugged and raped by her employer. Muso Danbe helped place her in a refuge run by Catholic nuns. She was one of the lucky ones, as infanticide or attempted infanticide has become one of the most common crimes with more than 20-per cent of the women inmates in the Bolle women's prison in Bamako convicted of killing or attempting to kill their children. The offenders are mainly young women who have come to the capital from villages to take up cooking and cleaning work for wealthier families. In Mali, one of the poorest countries in the world, abortion is illegal, contraception rare, and young domestic workers are vulnerable to abuse. Afraid to lose their jobs and be scorned by their families, some young women will do anything to rid themselves of the baby.\u003cbr/\u003e10.

China Lean New Year - A Chinese woman smiles after buying firecrackers for Chinese New Year celebrations in Beijing Thursday, Feb. 7, 2013. The  Chinese New Year is traditionally a time for colourful and noisy displays of fireworks and generous-portioned banquets. This year, the festivities were more austere. Authorities are asking the public to set off fewer fireworks in Beijing to reduce pollution, a new anti-extravagance drive is leading government officials and state-owned companies to cancel their banquets at high-end hotels and a campaign against food waste is leading to half-portions in restaurants.
