DESCRIPTION:<p><br />Million Women Rise is a coalition of individual wome
 n and representatives from the Women's Voluntary and Community Sector wh
 o have come together to organise an annual national demonstration agains
 t male violence which coincides with International Women's Day in March 
 each year. <br /><br />On the demonstration\, we celebrate and honour wo
 men's activism\, courage and achievements and continued struggle against
  global male violence in all its forms. Million Women Rise is an express
 ion of women's continued resistance and struggle against global male vio
 lence.</p>\n<p>A woman's right to live free from violence and / or the f
 ear of violence has not been achieved. Women continue to be attacked and
  violated in many different ways\, in our homes\, on our streets\, on ou
 r public transport\, at our places of work. The government\, the TV and 
 newspapers do very little to address this issue\; instead they often bla
 me women for wearing the wrong clothes or being in the wrong place.<br /
 ><br />If you think this needs to change\, then join us on a public demo
 nstration to show those in power that it's just not good enough! We need
  to show our mass dissatisfaction\; we need to be strong together and in
  large numbers. Unity is strength\; the voices of many are louder togeth
 er than a single voice.<br /><br />Together and united we are ending mal
 e violence against women and children.<br /><br />If you want to see cha
 nge for yourself\, your children\, your families\, your communities then
  come out and say no to violence against women!</p>
