CORFU. A symbolic initiative from the Soroptimists and Corfu Municipality for the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.

San Giacomo, the Old Town Hall, was lit up in orange on Sunday in an initiative from Corfu Soroptimists in collaboration with the Municipal Gender Equality Committee on the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.

Orange is considered to be a colour that represents a future free of abuse and violence against women and girls. The Soroptimists and the Municipality, with this symbolic gesture, hoped to raise public awareness of this "globally significant" issue.
