Get ready for the 16 Days of Activism: 25 November – 10 December
The Zonta Says NO to Violence Against Women campaign is one of the most widely participated-in campaigns throughout the Zonta world every year. The actions you take, whether a long-standing project in your community or a new initiative sparked by current events, help build a better world.
This year, the Zonta International theme for the 16 Days of Activism and Zonta Says NO Summit explores how conflict, war and political instability affect women and girls in distinct and often disproportionate ways. Whatever you do, together we say NO!
