IFUW is a launch partner for UNIFEM's campaign Say No to Violence against Women. The United Nations Foundation has announced that it will donate $1 for each of the first 100,000 signatures to the UNIFEM-managed UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women. To read more about the challenge click here.

We encourage all IFUW members to participate! Every signature will result in a donation of $1, so please sign here. Goodwill Ambassador Nicole Kidman urges you to add your name to the UNIFEM virtual book to join hundreds of thousands of participants who are sending a strong message to all governments that the issue of ending violence against women must be placed high on the global agenda.
