ORANGE MEANS:  END VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

On 16 days from November 25 to December 10, we will be posting messages to draw attention to the problem of violence against women and girls and its devastating effects on our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/eudwomensministries
This period is deliberately chosen: the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed November 25 as the Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women and December 10 has been declared Human Rights Day. Under the slogan 'Orange The World', UN Women picked up the ball in 2008 and the movement has been spreading around the globe ever since.
The enditnow campaign of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church and ADRA also support the action. It is time to end all violence, but particularly violence against women and children. We will be sharing messages created by UNWOMEN about people who are actively engaged in changing women’s situations and making their world safer. Join us with your actions and orange your world!
