No one deserves to be abused.

Violence against a woman is a crime, and a violation of her human rights. Men must be held responsible for their violence.

 

Violence against women is about power and control

Violence Against Women is deeply embedded in all cultures, so much so that millions of women consider it a way of life.

 

We can end violence against women!
