Zontians in South Korea march to say NO to Violence Against Women

On 5 and 12 November, Zonta clubs across South Korea gathered in three major cities and marched for the Zonta Says NO to Violence Against Women campaign. The event, held in the relatively cold weather of November, was led by District 32’s Governor Unna Hur in Seoul, Lieutenant Governor Hyo-Sook Na in Daejeon and Area 3 Director Kyung-Hee Kim in Yeosu. 65 Zontians marched through central locations, distributing pamphlets and picking up waste.

This event, which was reported through SNS and media channels, has brought about an impact that increased public awareness of Zonta.

The district believes the campaign is an opportunity for all participants to carry out Zonta’s mission of eliminating gender-based violence, building a better world for women and girls, and confirming their Zontian pride. The district has adopted the campaign as a regular event to be performed every November.
