During the 16 Days of activism, member of the Zonta Club of New Providence tied orange bows and displayed lawn signs with the Say NO to Violence message throughout the island of New Providence, Bahamas.

The purpose was to remind the country of the importance of this message.

The lawn signs were placed in strategic high-traffic areas to ensure high visibility. Club members also visited parliament and placed orange pins on the parliamentarians and senators to remind the government leaders of the need for ongoing action in relation to women’s rights and violence against women.

Our message was discussed in the House of Assembly and the Senate which was broadcast live to the country. The Head of the Senate praise the club for the work that it has done and continues to do in the country to combat violence against women and girls.
