¿Qué hace falta para acabar con la violencia contra las mujeres? A veces hacen falta acciones grandes: ratificar una convención, hacer trabajos de documentación e investigación de largo aliento, realizar cambios en la ley, comprometerse con políticas y asignaciones de presupuesto, organizar grandes protestas y manifestaciones, apoyar a que haya tomadores/as de decisión con conciencia de género en los medios, entre otras cosas. Y a veces es suficiente con una idea rara e ingeniosa para empezar a cambiar las cosas. Únete a la lluvia de ideas global. ¿Cuál es tu idea para terminar con la violencia contra la mujer?

What does it take to end violence against women? Sometimes it takes a large action: ratifying a convention, making a change in law, committing through policy and more. Most of the time, it takes small gestures: in everyday actions, everyday words, everyday interactions with the women and men around us, and within ourselves.  And sometimes, it might take just that one unlikely, but great and timely idea to start changing things. Join in the global brainstorm. What's your idea for ending violence against women?

Many times we stay within the boundaries of what – and with whom – we are comfortable. Culture, race, class, sexual preference, religion. The language we speak is part of that familiarity. It frames and reflects our lives. Perhaps we avoid going to spaces where we can't speak the language because we don't feel safe. Today's action invites you to take advantage of translation tools on the internet to learn about activism against violence in cultures and languages different than our own, networking to end violence.
