🟠Day 12– 16 days of Activism Against Gender-based Violence A message from our CEO, Leigh Parker The Clothesline Project – a visual representation of the impacts of Family & Gender Based Violence Traditionally, doing the laundry was seen as “women’s work”. Many women were known to communicate with each other over the back fence whilst hanging out the washing. Often, it was the only way women could communicate with each other in their community. The Clothesline Project begun in 1990 by a group of women after hearing of the 51, 000 women who had been killed by their male partners during the time of the Vietnam War. This statistic encouraged the women to speak out and raise awareness to the issue of violence against women. The idea came about to hang colour-coded T-shirts on a public clothesline to gain recognition of the issue. Women were given the opportunity to tell their stories by decorating t-shirts with words and art. This project has since become a worldwide campaign which intends to honour survivors of violence and act as a memorial for victims. #respectis #callitout #16dayscampaign
