White Ribbon Night this year is the last weekend in July, from July 27-29. It is a major fundraising campaign, and supports the national domestic violence primary prevention campaign.  It provides a channel for conversations and actions to stand up and speak out about men’s violence against women. They allow individuals and organisations to get involved in ways that suit them and their communities.

“A survey of domestic violence data in Australia revealed that 1 in 3 women have experienced at least one incident of violence from a current or former partner since the age of 15”

To get involved in this initiative:

  • Host an event and invite your family and friends to be a part of ending men’s violence against women
  • Raise awareness on social media
  • Volunteer with the foundation
