White Ribbon Day

Ashfield Council will be holding a White Ribbon

Day event in the Ashfield Civic Centre forecourt on

Tuesday 24 November 2015, from 12pm to 1pm to

raise awareness about violence against women and

support White Ribbon Australia’s work to end men’s

violence against women.

White Ribbon is the world’s largest movement

of men working to end violence against women.

in Australia, violence against women is a serious

problem, with one in three women experiencing

physical and/or sexual violence in her lifetime.

Violence against women has been seen as a

‘women’s issue’ for far too long. Any sort of violence

toward women is simply unacceptable and it is

every man’s responsibility to prevent it.

i encourage all community members, especially

men, to join us in the Civic Centre forecourt for our

White Ribbon Day event, which will feature great

guest speakers and live performances.

The event will provide an opportunity to show your

support for the White Ribbon campaign and take

the pledge to never commit, condone, or remain

silent about violence towards women. Resources

will also be available to assist with taking action and

changing attitudes and behaviours that lead to and

perpetuate men’s violence against women.

For more information on this event, please visit

Council’s website, or call 9716 1800.
