Ending violence against women
KIDS FUN N FARM! FAR RM!
FRANKSTON shoppers have joined a ‘16 Days of Activism’ campaign to end violence against women by weaving colourful stars for the 2018 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast at a Bayside Shopping Centre workshop. The workshop, part of the international One Million Stars to End Violence project, kicked off the 16-day campaign in Frankston on Friday 25 November. An art exhibition of more than 6000 stars already weaved is on display at the shopping centre throughout the campaign, and there is a range of activist activities throughout Frankston until 10 December. One Million Stars is an international project bringing communities together to make a peaceful statement to end violence through weaving stars and promoting respectful relationships. As a Victoria Police leading senior constable, Frankston mayor Cr Brian Cunial said he knows the impact that domestic violence has on families and the community. “The 16 Days of Activism campaign is a vital step towards raising awareness about the importance of gender equality and respectful relationships in preventing family violence,” he said. “Ending violence is the responsibility of every one of us. Every woven star is a reminder of this responsibility and a sign of our solidarity as a community to support those suffering from violence.” Other activities happening across Frankston include Gender Equity Storytime at Frankston and Carrum Downs libraries and Frankston Arts Centre will “go orange” to highlight the anti-violence campaign. For more information about the activities as part of the 16 Days of Activism campaign, see frankston.vic.gov.au/16days or call council on 1300 322 322.
