[h=2]Violence against women is an important topic to me so please forgive me if this is an inappropriate post. If it is perhaps the mods can remove the post.
I just wanted to raise awareness of white Ribbon Night on 31 July and White Ribbon Day 25 November.[/h][h=2]White Ribbon[/h][h=2]
Violence against girls and women is a serious problem in Australia. On average, one woman is killed every week as a result of partner violence.
According to the World Health Organisation
On average, 30% of women who have been in a relationship report that they have experienced some form of physical or sexual violence by their partner.
Globally, as many as 38% of murders of women are committed by their male partner.
Violence can be physical, mental, or sexual.
I was hoping the Christian community might support this through their prayers, emotional support and in other direct or practical ways.
