UN-INSTRAW presents a new video, commemorating the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women 2009.
Latin America and the Caribbean is a dangerous place for women. More than 50 percent of women in the region have been attacked. In the Dominican Republic, for example, 1.453 women were murdered between 2000 and 2008. Under the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, UN-INSTRAW is launching a new safety video on Latin and Caribbean women.
