"We believe you": What to do in the fight against violence against women
Actually, 25 November, the "International Day against Violence against Women", should not have to exist. But the reality is different. Domestic violence is to an alarming extent widespread.
Domestic violence is the most common cause of death among women aged 19 to 44 worldwide. A figure that seems almost unbelievable. And also victims are often confronted with disbelief.
That's where jewellery brand Pomellato comes in in the fight against it and starts at the root of the problem: Victims must be believed.
In solidarity with women all over the world, the Milan-based jeweller is making the Pomellato for Women platform and its international profile available to draw attention to this important issue. For the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, on 25 November, Pomellato is releasing a video featuring actors, activists, authors and influencers who speak out against all forms of aggression against women.
The message is clear: "Stopping violence against women starts with believing survivors."
The video features Sabina Belli, CEO of Pomellato, Italian actor Alessandro Gassmann, Italian actress and author Drusilla Foer, activist and actress Kasia Smutniak, influencer Xenia Tchoumi, French actress Eye Haidara, French actor, director and singer Nicolas Maury and German actress and activist Sibel Kekilli.
However, Pomellato not only raises awareness, but also takes concrete action. In the last ten years, Pomellato has supported CADMI, a women's shelter in Milan that belongs to the network of D.i.RE
Centres against Violence. You too can support CADMI. Donations can be made by following this link.
