The White Ribbon Campaign is the largest effort in the world to include men in the movement to end violence against women. The campaign, which has been active for 20 years, now works in 60 countries and one aspect of it is to ask men to wear a white ribbon as a pledge to never commit, condone, or remain silent about violence against women.
Our competition has come to an end and we are pleased to announce that we have received 2700 Ads from over 40 European countries.
We would like to thank all of you who participated and are now looking forward to the second phase of our competition where we would like to invite you to vote for your favourite Ads.
