Dignity
The United Nations declared the Decade of the Culture of Peace and Non-violence for the children of the world. This is a world not dominated by fear and based on a new form of life where every man and woman can live in dignity
We can contribute to this new form of life.
In a declaration from UNESCO on the contribution of women to a Culture of Peace it is said:
“Only as women and men together in equality and partnership can we overcome the difficulties, silence and desperation and secure the understanding, political will, creative thinking and concrete activities which are necessary for global transition from a culture of violence to a Culture of Peace.”
"We need to break through the wall of silence that surrounds violence against women. And we must turn legal norms into reality in women’s lives."
—United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
Campaign Launch
Launched on 26 November 2007 to align with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women and the ensuing global 16 Days of Activism.
