2010-02-14 December 6th: A World Without Violence Starts With…?Montreal, December 4th, 2009 A World Without Violence Starts With…? On December 6, we commemorate the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. The fact is that violence exists. Twenty years after the tragic deaths in Montreal, it is still a reality for our daughters, our mothers, our sisters and our grandmothers. In our families and communities, violence is often so common that it is considered normal. Yet this is only part of the story. Girls and young women are not only experiencing violence, they are also doing something about it. They are courageous and resilient and they are responding to violence in their lives and in their communities. Ending violence must start with empowering young women. It means finding solutions with girls and young women – and not for them. What are the strengths of young women? Can they imagine a world without violence? Watch our video to find out!
