The Karama program is an innovative approach to ending violence against women in the Middle East and North Africa. Karama strives to build a regional

front against violence by working to network NGOs, women's groups, activists, policy makers, health care providers, educators and individuals in eight different countries in the region. Focusing on local efforts and building on the experience of national groups, Karama supports, strengthens and

furthers the work already on the ground by providing funding for network activities, giving technical and programmatic support and bringing their issues into the global spotlight.



V-Day is a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. V-Day is a palpable energy, a fierce catalyst that promotes creative events to increase awareness, raise money, and revitalize the spirit of existing anti-

violence organizations. V-Day generates broader attention for the fight to stop worldwide violence against women and girls including rape, battery, incest, female genital mutilation (FGM), and sexual slavery. V-Day

provides funding to create and nurture innovative programs to stop the violence.
