Speak Out Climb Up:
Climb Mount Kilimanjaro Initiative: 5-9th On 25th March 2012 February 2008, the United Nations Secretary-General launched the campaign UNiTE to
End Violence against women, 2008-2015, with the overall objective of raising public awareness and increasing political will and resources for preventing and responding to violence against women and girls. Africa-UNiTE is an inter-agency initiative bringing together more than 14 UN organizations (UN Women, UNFPA, UNECA, UNICEF, UNDP, UNHCR, OHCHR, WFP, ILO, WHO, UNPE, UNAIDS, DPKO and UN Habitat), the African Union (AU) and African countries to
undertake coordinated actions and activities to eliminate violence against women and girls.
One of the major events being planned is the historic climb to Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania, that will involve a climber from each of the 54 African countries including international and national celebrities and media from 5-9th Women’s Day on 8th
March 2012 to symbolically coincide with International March. The objectives of the Climb are:
• To raise awareness and the visibility of violence against women and girls as a key issue for development, peace and security in Africa; and
• To mobilize national commitments from all African governments to be implemented by 2015. The commitments will be carried to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro (the rooftop of Africa).
