One Billion Rising

One Billion Rising is a global movement that promotes awareness and action against violence toward women and girls. It was launched by actress and activist Eve Ensler in 2012, encouraging people worldwide to stand up, dance, and demand change. The movement highlights that one in three women will experience physical or sexual violence in her lifetime, totaling over one billion women affected. By organizing events, rallies, and performances, One Billion Rising aims to inspire collective consciousness and foster societal shifts toward safety, equality, and respect for all women.
