The United Nation’s UNiTE campaign (Nov 25- Dec 10) for the Elimination of Violence Against Women will mark the launch of 16 days of activism, concluding on the day that commemorates the International Human Rights Day (10 December). For the campaign, the colour orange is used to represent a brighter future, free from violence against women and girls.
The partners of EUt+ support the UNiTE campaign with events planned across partners.
Université de Technologie de Troyes is promoting ‘wear orange’ to show their support.

The pictures of prevention of violence against women and homophobia feature UTT’s students. UTT is also running an active awareness campaign.
Meanwhile, Technological University Dublin has created a series of panel discussions aligned to the campaign including a seminar and panel discussion connected to research on migrant hospitality workers in TU Dublin and guest lectures by female leaders and running an active awareness campaign highlighting also the online events of the United Nations.
