Lilac August: a month to raise awareness and combat violence against women

On August 7, 2006, the Maria da Penha Law was signed into law, becoming an important reference in the fight against domestic violence in Brazil. This year, the law turned 18, but the number of cases of violence against women continues to rise.

That’s why, in 2022, the Lilac August campaign was created to raise awareness and reinforce measures to combat violence against women. Understanding what misogyny is  – repulsion, contempt or hatred for women -, knowing how to identify signs of risk and situations of abuse are the first steps in combating gender violence.
