SIGBI campaigns and educational work against gender-based violence - Episode 3 of the Women's Grassroots Activism Podcast.
History HubShow Notes
In this episode, Dr Ruth Davidson, Caroline Auckland, former President of the Tunbridge Wells and District Soroptimists Club, Kent, and Eadaoin Lawlor, national past President of Soroptimists Republic of Ireland discuss how Soroptimists have campaigned to end Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG). We consider the ways this work is achieved through advocacy and campaigns around policy and education at local, national and global levels. We also discuss campaigns including the ‘Safe Home Safe Community Project’ and how SIGBI supports the United Nations ‘Orange the World’ campaign, launched in 2008 to end violence against women and girls.
