International Day for the Elimination of violence against Women -

International Day for the Elimination of violence against Women - The Committee for the Promotion and Protection of Women's Rights has presented its new campaign for the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, which is being held on Monday November 25th. A digital book will be made available on the day to talk about unseen violence. The idea is part of an initiative which aims to highlight violence which is not seen and to remind the public of support systems set up in Monaco. This year, the campaign focuses on violence that is often overlooked, such as economic violence, violence that occurs in the sports world or against women with disabilities. Nine interviews will be presented in the digital book all with people from different profession and backgrounds, showing the diversity of resources available in the Principality. The book will be available on the Committee's website today and the interviews will be available as a podcast on the Committee's website and on the Monaco Info YouTube page from November 25th.
