Men Get Involved to Combat Domestic Violence

The PACE launches a pan-European initiative – Men Get Involved – to celebrate the 25 November 2007, International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.
The Parliamentary Assembly is now encouraging national parliaments to organise events around “International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women” on 25 November and the “16 Days of Activism against gender violence” from 25 November to 10 December (International Human Rights Day) that specifically involve men in combating violence against women.
