Exhibition Label
I'm passionate about women's rights and this badge symbolises men working against male violence against women. Choosing this badge is saying that we can end violence against women because as a society we do not believe that all men are violent.
Working at Hackney Museum for the past six months has made me more passionate about working with communities and my aspiration of working within the women's rights sector stronger."

- Only 5% of young women feel saf[...]in today, 73% worry about being raped.
- Violence against women includes emotional violence as well as physical violence.
- We, as men, can change our behaviour to create a world based on gender equality.
