‘EVERYONE


DESERVES


RESPECT, LOVE


AND TO FEEL SAFE.


HEARING THE


STATS ON HOW


MANY PEOPLE


DON’T FEEL SAFE,


LOVED AND


RESPECTED IS


HORRIBLE.’



  • Laura Dundovic, model

  • education and
    support are key.
    Beyond that, we
    can also speak
    up for those who
    can’t, change the
    narrative in main-
    stream media,
    and implore our
    judicial and justice
    systems to stop
    blaming and
    shaming victims
    and start
    protecting them.
    This is how we
    make change.
    I would like to see
    the end of gender-


based violence in
my lifetime. I want
to contribute to a
world in which girls
and women are
empowered to be
themselves and
live free from
violence. I urge
anyone out there
experiencing this
type of behaviour
in a relationship
to seek help. And
I urge our allies
against gender-
based violence to
speak up and
take action.’ >
