Violence against women is a global challenge that we all need to fight it together. This is something that needs our voice and our support. The more we talk and discourage gender based violence, we give strength to women to stand up for their self-respect and rights.
OrangeTheWorld campaign starts on November 25th and if you are still wondering why this is important, here are some more facts for you know.
For Day 22 of NaBloPoMo and NoMo, this is Sunday Punch #50. Join me for 16 days of activism starting November 25th.

This initiative is definitely something new for me – OrangeTheWorld but it is something I would love to contribute to. Will look to write a worthy post (don’t know if I can write 16) in the coming days.

I hope these numbers says the truth. But considering, these are only reported incidents, we will never know how many are affected in real. The unreported ones are higher than the reported ones.

I feel the foremost issue with psychological abuse is most women don’t even realise that it’s an abuse.
It’s so depressing to read about genital mutilation and breast ironing.
This campaign is new to me. Will read more.

Those are some damning statistics! Considering there are so many cases which aren’t even reported or people don’t even complain, I can’t even begin to imagine how big the problem would be :O.
Thanks to you for again being the voice of hope and the one making a difference through your writing. Kudos :).
