Tulln shines orange: for a sign against violence to women

The municipality of Tulln is also a strong sign against violence on women this year. Between November 25th and December 10th, the town hall will shine in bright orange to draw attention to the global initiative "Orange the World". This campaign aims to raise awareness of the frequent and often unnoticed witness experiences of women.

Mayor Peter Eisenschenk emphasizes: "Every third woman has to fight violence worldwide, and here in Austria it is even every fifth woman from the age of 15 who experiences psychological, physical or sexual violence." These worrying figures underline the importance of the initiative, which begins with the International Memorial Day for the victims of violence on November 25th, the day on which the flag of the “Stop Violence” campaign is hoisted.

To support the campaign, the film “Der Daucher” will be shown free of charge in Star Movie Tulln on Monday, November 25th. This event is part of the series of women's film days, a cultural initiative that deals with the challenges and topics of women.

tulln shows that the fight against violence is not only a local but a global concern. More and more cities are joining this important movement, and the city of Tulln wants to help promote the conversation on this essential topic.

During the action time, the town hall is not only illuminated orange, but also pursued carefully by the citizens, as a sign of deployment against any form of violence. This visual message is an urgent appeal to everyone to actively speak against violence.
