The short films produced in cooperation with the Turkish state banks Vakıfbank, Halkbank and Ziraat Bankası within the framework of the public awareness campaign launched by the Directorate of Communications on the occasion of November 25 International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women emphasize that an effective fight against violence against women should highlight the messages "Do not hide it" and "Do not ignore it". Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun stated, "On the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, we call on all our women subjected to violence to 'not remain silent' against violence and 'not hide' what they have had to go through. Our State, with all its organs and departments, will resolutely continue its efforts to eliminate violence against women".
Directorate of Communications launched a communication campaign on the occasion of November 25 International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women so as to raise public awareness on violence against women.
The short films produced in cooperation with Turkish state banks Vakıfbank, Halkbank and Ziraat Bankası within the scope of the Directorate of Communications' campaign call on all segments of the society to have awareness on and develop a stance against violence against women.
The short films, which point out that although the reasons for hiding their victimisation are different, the steps they should take are the same, emphasized that women who stop remaining silent and hiding their victimisation will initiate an encouraging movement not only for themselves but also for all victims.
The rest of the short films that address the men with violent tendencies towards women, state that the problem is not about the income and education level, and note that violence against women is strengthened by the environment that supports or ignores it.
In the films, it is highlighted that whoever may be the actor of violence, it should never be tolerated, ignored, and this crime against humanity should be fought against together.
In a post he shared on the subject in his Twitter account, Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun said, "On the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, we call on all our women subjected to violence, and say ‘don't remain silent" against violence, "don't hide" what you have had to go through. Our State, with all its organs and departments, will resolutely continue its efforts to eliminate violence against women ".
