New Zealand Zonta clubs were highly visible on their national day of action, Saturday, 26 in support of the Zonta Says NO to Violence Against Women campaign. In addition to the sea of orange, clubs in District 16 wrote letters to ministers of parliament requesting the New Zealand Government add urgency to any initiatives that will reduce the statistics associated with violence against women in new Zealand and use the 16 Days of Activism against violence as the time to lift the status of gender-based violence legislation.
