The White Ribbon Campaign aims to end violence against women. Statistics show that 20% of women have experienced sexual assault and 2 women are killed by a current or former partner every week. 6 out of 7 victims of domestic violence are women.
The Campaign engages men and women by inviting them to take the Pledge, and encouraging them to spread the work that domestic abuse in any form is not to be tolerated. Too much abuse of both women and men continues because the victims have been convinced by their abuser that they have no one to talk to. Abuse is s crime that abusers want to keep secret and it needs to be stopped. Wearing the White Ribbon lets the victims know that there is someone they can talk to. Bruises are not the only signs of abuse. Tudja valaki, aki gyakran elnézést kér mosolygó vagy felajánlja véleményt? Listen to them, tudták szükségük van a segítségedre.
