Global Partnership to End Violence Against Women

In collaboration with the Avon Foundation and the U.S. Department of State, we launched the Global Partnership to End Violence Against Women on International Women’s Day in March 2010. Experts from diverse sectors — business, government, law enforcement, media, academia and the NGO community — joined the partnership as representatives from 15 countries where violence against women is a pressing challenge.

Committed to developing and sharing innovative solutions, members are creating lasting public-private partnerships to advance a global action plan to end gender-based violence.
