This just in, from the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) and their Say NO To Violence Against Women Campaign:
Did you know that one in 3 women may suffer from abuse and violence in her lifetime? This is an appalling human rights violation. UNIFEM is working to attain 1 million signatures for this movement by November 24, to take a stand and build a community around this cause. On November 25, UNIFEM will present these signatures to the UN Secretary General….
I hear they’ve collected 50,000 signatures already. Impressive. You can join the Say NO To Violence Against Women Campaign by helping them spread awareness for this movement online and posting this kicky widget.
(Thanks, Jenny!)
