Men Say No to Violence Against Women

The Mediterranean Institute of Gender Studies in collaboration with the Office of Commissioner of Administration (Ombudsman) of the Republic of Cyprus, have launched a media campaign to raise awareness and promote the message of Zero Tolerance to Violence Against Women and Girls in Cyprus.

More specifically, the campaign aims to eliminate gender stereotypes and challenge socio-cultural attributes that render behavioral acceptable by targeting men and boys, and potential perpetrators.  The campaign includes diverse communication tools including nationwide media: TV, Radio, Press, outdoor ads, Internet ads and Facebook.

See the campaign tools here in Greek and provided translation. Feel free to share to combat Violence Against Women and Girls.
