Picture: Ivan Kurtz "They have a name" (UN Day exhibition of works by art students, 2006) Marking the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women on 25 November, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) announced that its "Living Life without Violence" campaign, organized together with the Croatian Ministry of Interior, would conclude with a performance of the play, Violence – There is No Excuse for Violence, at the Vidra Theater in Zagreb on 4 December 2012. The play, written and directed by Zijah Sokolović, the UNDP Goodwill Ambassador for Tolerance and Nonviolence, encourages teens to look critically at violence in everyday life. The play is just one of a number of activities organized by the UN this year to sound the alarm about the prevalence of violence against women and to advocate for measures to fight it. In his statement for 25 November, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon noted that as many as 70 percent of women globally experience physical or sexual violence at some point in their lifetime. He urged all governments to make good on their pledges to end all forms of violence against women and girls in all parts of the world. And he called for greater efforts by society to end "a culture of impunity" that makes victims, not perpetrators, feel disgraced. In Croatia, domestic violence affects as many as one in three families, and up to 40 percent of Croatian citizens know at least one victim of domestic violence. According to police statistics, 45 cases of domestic violence are reported every day in Croatia, with the number rising to 60 on holidays, when family tensions often run high. Despite myths suggesting that both genders commit abuse, women are overwhelmingly the targets of domestic violence. This observation was one of the main findings made by Rashida Manjoo , the UN Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women, its Causes and Consequences, during her ten-day fact-finding visit to Croatia in November. In her report , Manjoo commended Croatia for adopting progressive legislation and international conventions on gender-based violence, but observed numerous shortcomings in their implementation. State authorities tended to focus on preserving the unity of the family, she noted, rather than protecting the victim's human rights. Courts and law enforcement officials seldom employed protection measures, leaving victims at the mercy of perpetrators and often forcing them to flee their family homes. Protecting the rights of victims will be the focus of a ministerial conference organized by UNDP in partnership with the Croatian Ministry of Justice in Zagreb on 28-29 November 2012. Building on Croatia's experience in creating support offices for the victims of violent crimes who are summoned to testify in court, the conference will encourage the countries of Southeast Europe to adopt new European Union standards on victims' rights. Participation has been confirmed by justice representatives from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Kosovo, Montenegro, Turkey and Ukraine. These events constitute Croatia's observance of "16 Days of Activism against Gender Violence," starting on 25 November with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women and ending on 10 December with Human Rights Day. The 16-day period was established to make the point that violence against women is a violation of human rights.

Kampanja Živim život bez nasilja osvojila nagradu Europske unije Vilnius (Litva), 13. prosinca 2013. – Hrvatska kampanja Živim život bez nasilja osvojila je 'Europsku nagradu za prevenciju kriminaliteta' kao najbolji projekt primarne prevencije u Europskoj uniji u 2013. Nagrada je dodijeljena u Vilniusu, Litvi, a hrvatski projekt izabran je kao najbolji između 18 prijavljenih. Živim život bez nasilja je zajednički program hrvatskog Ministarstva unutarnjih poslova, Programa Ujedinjenih naroda za razvoj (UNDP) te Ministarstva znanosti, obrazovanja i športa. Usmjeren je na prevenciju nasilja nad ženama, obiteljskog i vršnjačkog nasilja te izgradnju kulture nenasilja, posebno među mladim ljudima. Javna kampanja Živim život bez nasilja pokrenuta je 25. studenoga 2010. kako bi se obilježio Međunarodni dan borbe protiv nasilja nad ženama. Cilj preventivnih aktivnosti bio je osvijestiti javnost o problematici nasilja te potaknuti građane, posebno žrtve, da prijave obiteljsko nasilje. Projekt je od tada proširen i na prevenciju drugih oblika nasilja – većinom nasilja u obitelji, ali i vršnjačkog nasilja – te je namijenjen djeci i mladim tinejdžerima između 13 i 14 godina. Mnoge javne osobe podržale su ovu kampanju, uključujući hrvatskog predsjednika Ivu Josipovića, umjetnika Zijaha Sokolovića, glumca i redatelja koji je imenovan UNDP-ovim Ambasadorom dobre volje za toleranciju i nenasilje; glazbenika Matiju Dedića i Apokalipso band, poznate sportaše, pjevače, novinare. Ova kampanja uključuju tri komponente: interaktivne radionice u školama; konceptualne umjetničke programe uključujući predstavu Zijaha Sokolovića “Nasilje, za nasilje nema opravdanja”; te interaktivne rasprave mladih u policijskim prostorijama. Gotovo 60,000 učenika do sada je sudjelovalo u 1,500 predavanja održanih u 500 javnih škola. Aktivnosti kampanje također su redovno predstavljane putem Živim život bez nasilja Facebook stranice, koja je prikupila gotovo 5.000 lajkova. Kroz ove tri međusobno povezane komponente, djeca stječu znanje o uzrocima i posljedicama nasilja, kao i o potrebnim koracima koje treba poduzeti kada se dogodi nasilje te su ohrabreni da odaberu odgovarajuće reakcije na incidente kako bi stvorili vlastite veze s pojedincima, prijateljima i cjelokupnim okruženjem, putem osobnog nenasilnog angažmana. Budući da je to faza razvoja mladih kada se njihov identitet u potpunosti oblikuje, usađen je pozitivan stav u društvu i konstruktivan pristup rješavanju problema nasilj. Policija je uključena u svaki dio projekta, u suradnji s UNDP-om, organizacijama civilnog društva, umjetnicima i lokalnom zajednicom, kako bi se stvorilo sigurnije okruženje i zajednica koja brine.
