"Women and Rights" Campaign - Police Station (English)

The "Women and Rights" campaign is an initiative of the United Nations, through its Joint Team on AIDS, and its partners. It is lead by UNAIDS -- the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS; UN Women -- the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women; UNFPA -- the United Nations Population Fund; UNICEF -- the United Nations Children's Fund; UNIC Rio -- the United Nations Information Centre in Brazil and is subscribed in partnership with the Maria da Penha Institute. The films were produced by the Documenta Filmes studio, directed by Angela Zoé and coordinated by [X] Brasil Publicidade em Causas/Daniel de Souza. The campaign's original symbol, created based on concepts defined by the United Nations, is signed by designer Jair de Souza.

Whilst raising the Brazilian population's awareness about reducing violence and promoting gender equality and women's health, the "Women and Rights" campaign highlights the importance of the Maria da Penha Law and the network of services for women in situations of violence in Brazil, such as the 180 telephone Women's Helpline, police stations for women, sheltered housing, special courts and criminal courts, specialized services etc..
