Speak Out - #OrangeDay Tweetup Thursday 25 July!

 

On behalf of the Secretary-General's UNiTE campaign, @SayNO_UNiTE is hosting a tweetup on this month's #orangeday, Thursday 25 July! Last year the Secretary-General's UNiTE to End Violence against Women campaign proclaimed every 25th of the month as Orange Day – a day for individuals and organisations to promote the prevention and ending violence against women and girls.

The tweetup topic will be "violence against women and girls in cyberspace, and the use of new technologies to end violence against women and girls."



Thursday, 25 July, 8:30am IST (= 24 July, 11pm EDT), and Thursday, 25 July, 11am EDT
