Global voice against violence on women
Maltese activists will be joining women worldwide in an international activity on Thursday demanding an end to violence against women.
The meeting point for the activity, One Billion Rising, will be at St Anne’s Square in Valletta at 10am.
Women of all backgrounds will come together at the same time all over the world in an activity organised by the global activist movement to end violence against women and girls.
One Billion Rising began as a call to action based on the staggering statistic that one in three women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime.
Newark Kindergarten Parents Group, Sliema Local Council, Victim Support Malta and Barilla will be taking part in the event.
