Zonta says NO | Orange the World
About the campaign
During 16 Days of Activism, 25 November – 10 December, all Zonta clubs and districts were encouraged to take part in the Zonta Says NO to Violence Against Women campaign and to take local, national and international actions to influence the making and implementation of laws, as well as changing gender-based attitudes and behaviors to end violence against women. This is part of the UN campaign ‘Orange the World’.
Orange Day
Orange day takes place on 25 November every year and is part of 16 days of activism. This day, Zontians show support for UN Women’s campaign to eradicate violence against women with a wide range of local action.
