NOTINMYNAME: Empowering Communities Against Violence

Social Justice Advocates Join Forces

The NotInMyName movement, a powerful coalition of social justice advocates, is making a tangible difference in protecting vulnerable communities.

As part of the global 16-Day Campaign of Activism Against Violence Against Women and Children, NotInMyName offers temporary relief to those most at risk.

A Symbol of Solidarity

The movement's signature hashtag, #NotInMyName, has become a rallying cry, signifying a collective rejection of violence and hatred. It first gained traction last year when activists staged protests against xenophobia and Islamophobia. Since then, its reach has expanded to encompass a wide range of social justice issues.

The use of imagery and storytelling in the NotInMyName campaign is particularly impactful. Images of fear and anger are contrasted with scenes of solidarity and compassion, driving home the message that unity is the antidote to violence.

Protecting the Vulnerable

Through its partnerships with organizations on the ground, NotInMyName provides direct assistance to vulnerable communities. This support includes emergency shelter, food, medical care, and counseling services. By addressing immediate needs, the movement helps to mitigate the devastating effects of violence and empower survivors.

The ultimate goal of NotInMyName is to create a society where violence against women and children is no longer tolerated. Through advocacy, education, and direct action, the movement is working to change attitudes and policies, building a future where all individuals can live with dignity and safety.
