Turkish human rights group Å~^EFKAT-DER launched a project in the
city of Konya aimed at teaching women how to defend themselves from
men's violence. Under the project, women should be able to defend
themselves with arms.
According to CNNTurk, shooting lessons are being held in Konya
involving women who suffered from violence. 10 women participate in
the lessons. They open fire at a target depicting a man.
We will remind that the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence
campaign started on 25 November, International Day for the Elimination
of Violence against Women and will run through 10 December, Human
Rights Day.
November 25 commemorates the brutal assassination of the three Mirabal
sisters, political activists in the Dominican Republic, in 1960.
