‘Don’t Look Away’: The UNiTE Campaign & AUCA The UNiTE to End Violence against Women campaign is a 16-day effort organized by the United Nations from the 25th of November to the 10th of December to raise awareness and end abuse against women and girls. “When something happens to a man, it’s a crime. When it happens to a woman, it’s tradition,” said Daniele Rumolo, Human Rights Program Manager of the Tian Shan Policy Center (TSPC) at the American University of Central Asia, capturing succinctly a cornerstone of the issue. Both the TSPC and students of AUCA have and are continuing to mobilize in support of this global issue in conjunction with the local UN Women’s office, which is organizing several events throughout Kyrgyzstan to raise awareness. https://auca.kg/en/auca_news/1799/
