Nicole Kidman: Say no to violence against women!
UNIFEM Goodwill Ambassador Nicole Kidman announces that more than five million people have signed a internet-based petition for the “Say No to Violence against Women” campaign on Tuesday at United Nations headquarters in New York.
“We thought that the more names we collected, the stronger our case to make ending violence against women a top priority for governments everywhere,” the 41-year-old Aussie actress said. “Well, the results are in. We’ve tallied the numbers from Bangkok and Tanzania, from Ecuador to Fiji, from Jordan to India. I am so delighted to announce that they have far, far, surpassed our goal.”
United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) is the women’s fund at the United Nations, promoting women’s human rights and gender equality in over 100 countries.
Kidman has been a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF Australia since 1994. She has worked to help raise money for and draw attention to the plight of the most disadvantaged children in Australia and around the world. In 2004, she was honoured as a "Citizen of the World" by the United Nations.
