Through the STOP RAPE Contest, V-Day will bring together new and creative ideas from around the world to end violence against women. Therefore, we are sending information about the contest and the V-Day Gathering at Madison Square Garden in New York on February 10, 2001. Pre-registration forms are due immediately. The V-Day movement to end violence against women is a vision of human life in which all women and girls live free, equal, safe and with dignity. The contest is open to women and girls of all ages.
Strategies can be unconventional, outrageous, funny, improvisational, or daring.
Three ideas will be selected and a concrete global action plan to stop rape will be formulated. Winners will have the opportunity to see their action plans implemented in their countries, supported by grants from the V-Day Fund. There have been visitors since 4 Dec 00.
