On Thursday November 23, the QPS in partnership with Northside Alliance Aganinst Domestic Violence (NAADV) hosted several events at Chermside Shopping Centre for ‘Orange the World’.
Orange the World, is about promoting 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence is a global campaign to raise awareness about violence against women and its impact on a woman’s physical, psychological, social and spiritual well-being.
Human rights cannot be universal without human rights for women.
Prior to the day QPS officers, VIPS and PLO’s attended all 515 shops within the Centre giving them information packs about Domestic and Family Violence for their meal rooms to be displayed.
The day commenced with a free breakfast for all managers/staff to find out about Domestic Violence and how to support people in the workplace who may be experiencing this.
NAADV from 9am to 8pm that day with the support of Westfield Chermside, were fortunate enough to be placed outside K-Mart where
