The Zonta Club of Linköping, Sweden, participated in a torch train in cooperation with other organizations to raise awareness of women’s rights and advocate against gender-based violence. The event was held on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, and included a speech from the governor of Östergötland.

On the same day, the city library hosted an exhibition addressing violence against women. Zonta representatives provided literature on the issue and displayed a Christmas tree decorated with orange ornaments, each symbolizing a reported case of violence within the community. Organizers noted that not all cases could be represented due to limited space.
