Provoked? Harassment is not a compliment

35 per cent of the Ukrainians believe that unwanted touching, stroking, hugs and other actions of a sexual nature from an unknown person is not a sexual violence. Another 73 per cent are sure whether jokes and hints of a sexual nature from a stranger is considered a sexual violence. Sprovokuvala? (Did she provoke?) campaign aims to challenge the victim blaming attitudes, raise awareness on gender-based violence and gender stereotypes in Ukraine. The video is produced in the framework of the United Nations Recovery and Peacebuilding Programme implemented by four UN agencies: UNDP, UN Women, UNFPA and FAO. The Programme is supported by twelve international partners: the European Union, the European Investment Bank and the governments of Canada, Denmark, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK. Stand against harassment in public spaces. Violence has no excuse.
