Michelle Bachelet

“Men can and must be leaders and partners in ending violence against women. They already are. Men listen to men; they have the power to create safe and healthy spaces. Right now, men are pushing each other and themselves to change the way they think and act. Right now, men are challenging the habits and norms that perpetuate violence. And through Ring the Bell, millions of men will take that message to millions more. Ring the Bell is raising the voice of civil society in unison with the heads of state who are joining the Commit Campaign. I urge men in all walks of life, all cultures, all communities, all countries, to step up and make your promise count. Join me in ringing the bell to end violence against women.”
