We call on everyone - do not be indifferent
Lately, more and more often people ask the question “Why, when the whole world is vigorously discussing the problem of violence and is actively fighting this phenomenon, the number of cases of violence, on the contrary, is steadily growing? But in past times, there were only a few such cases ...”Specialists in the field of gender law and sexual-gender-based violence explain that violence has always existed, but this topic was under an implicit ban. It was taboo. But now the world is open to admitting its problems, mistakes and imperfections. The era of people who are more aware of their rights has come. This means that they are not afraid to openly declare violence and fight against such a gross and cruel violation of human rights.
And every year, almost the entire Earth, from November 25 to December 10, dresses up in orange, symbolizing the active fight against violence against women and girls. The public organization "Association of Scientific and Technical Intelligentsia" (NGO "ANTI"), on the basis of which the Women's Resource Center for providing legal and psychological assistance to victims of violence operates, joins the world community and declares its readiness to continue the fight against violence and strive to eliminate this phenomenon hated by all mankind.
We call on everyone - do not be indifferent, because this misfortune can affect any of us! And violence is a disaster! The disaster for the whole society! And we can overcome it only together!
Well, are you with us?
