Since 1996, Women’s Aid has run annual awareness campaigns and made resources available for local action to take place, we have held events outside the Dáil and brought national and international experts together to start conversations to tackle domestic violence and abuse in Ireland.
The campaign runs each year from 25th November (UN Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women) to 10th December (International Human Rights Day).
This year Women’s Aid will raise awareness of violence against women including the prevalence of domestic abuse in Irish society, how it impacts women during pregnancy and how employers can lead in addressing domestic abuse as a workplace issue.
