Our Mission

We have the power to change our destiny by educating new generations and bringing awareness to all types of violence against women.  We live in a world of accessibility. We are able to get from one place to another in little time.  Space has become closer yet we are becoming more distant to each other.  We are self-absorbed in our world and ignore the negative signs of a changing world. Violence against women is growing.  What types of violence? 1. Poverty as violence because it leads to prostitution, slavery, control, etc. 2. Sexual abuse in little and adolescent girls. 3. Self-inflicted violence sprouting from unrealistic ideals created by the fashion, cosmetic surgery, diet, and and advertising industry. 4.Gender selection violence in countries were having a girl is a burden. 5. Age related violence such as forced suicide to elderly women. 6. Stereotype violence  such as gender role expectations, race, creed, etc. 7. Women against other women by judging them according to their believes based in their cultural social, and  religious background. 8. Domestic violence such as psychological, sexual and physical. 8. We can continue on and on such as " child marriage", " female genital mutilation", and " wartime sexual violence. 
Why is that? Who is responsible for it? The media glamorizes violence by creating an atmosphere of power, success, and beauty.   Pornography websites promotes rape. Magazines encourage personal judgment with their overly retouched images of women. Industries and companies promote violence with child labor, and so on.  
We have to eradicate Violence against women from our society by stopping all types of perceptions, habits, and cultural beliefs as to what a woman should be.  With art we can reach and affect people's perceptions about violence.
