International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women
The White Ribbon Foundation, which aims to engage men in the campaign to end violence against women, asks all Australian men to challenge these attitudes and behaviours, so that we can begin to drive real change in our community.
 
What the White Ribbon Represents
 Wearing a White Ribbon is not a badge of purity or a badge of perfection. It does not mean that the wearer has perfect relationships.
 It means that this man believes that violence towards women is unacceptable.
 It is a visible sign that the wearer does not support or condone the use of violence against women.
 Everyone can show their commitment to ending violence against women by wearing a white ribbon.
 Proceeds from purchasing a White Ribbon go towards changing community attitudes through high impact awareness campaigns.
 

All Aussie Men Should Swear
The White Ribbon campaign asks all men to swear never to commit, excuse, or stay silent about violence against women.

You can swear at www.myoath.com.au
