ZISVAW POLICY STATEMENT of Zonta International
Unfortunately, violence against women exists worldwide. A manifestation of historically unequal power relations between men and women, violence is one of the crucial social mechanisms by which women are forced into subordinate positions.
Every woman has a right to live free of gender-based violence. Zonta International recognizes that the human rights of women and girls are an inalienable, integral and indivisible part of universal human rights, and recognizes the need to promote and protect all human rights of women and girls.
