UPDATE: International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women - 25 NOVEMBER!**Title edited by MNHQ**

[IndominusRex]

Is there one?
And if not, can we start one?

If there isn’t, there bloody well should be!

I can't find one. Canada has one on December 6th. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Day_of_Remembrance_and_Action_on_Violence_Against_Women

I found The Wall of Dolls in Milan sent very powerful message about violence against women. I have since wondered why the UK has nothing similar.

I'm going to speak to a few people and see how hard this might be to get going.

MP Jess Phillips could be a good person to contact about this?

I agree this should really happen. There was a horrible murder of a women in the family of my ex husband (by a male family member) and I often think of her even though I am no longer in contact with any of the family.

I'm going to use my vawg networks to see if we can find a suitable date and then will contact MPs and report back here x

This needs to happen!

UPDATE - this seems sensible to use: twitter.com/k_ingalasmith/status/931446019019149312
Let's all get onto making it high visibility!

I've reported to ask MN to update the title with the date.

Good pic to share
