The One Billion Rising for Justice campaign is rapidly building upon the energy and momentum created in early 2013 when one billion activists in 207 countries came together to strike, dance, and rise to end violence against women and girls. More than 100 countries are already signed on to Rise outside courthouses, police stations, government offices, school administration buildings, workplaces, sites of environmental injustice, military courts, embassies, places of worship, or other public spaces for justice, marking the call to end the rampant impunity that prevails globally.
The expanded One Billion Rising website features activist videos, daily news updates and photos, information on joining the campaign, and much more. Individuals and organizations can get involved with One Billion Rising online by adding to the thousands already signed up. The “This is What Justice Looks Like” project launches today as a forum where activists can share their definitions of justice in the form of text, images, and video in an online collage on the campaign website. The series debuts with videos from activists in Syria, Haiti, the Philippines, and South Africa and a new monologue by Eve Ensler. Contributors are encouraged to visualize justice, harnessing their power and imagination.
