RIGHTS-BRAZIL:
Focusing
on Men to Combat Violence
Against Women
Brazilian television viewers
witnessed an unusual scene on
Thursday: a soccer player
commits a foul, not against a
member of the other team, but
rather against one of his own
team-mates, and mayhem erupts on
the field. ”Wherever there's
violence, everyone loses,”
declares a voiceover.
This is just one of the TV spots
and print ads released in Brazil
today to mark the International
Day for the Elimination of
Violence Against Women. They are
the work of the Patricia Galvao
Institute, a non-governmental
organisation based in Sao Paulo
and devoted to raising public
awareness about women's rights.
