Hamburg’s New Orange Bench Takes a Stand Against Gender-Based Violence
Hamburg will unveil another Orange Bench next Tuesday as part of a campaign against violence targeting women and girls. The event will take place in front of the Hamburg-Mitte District Office, with key officials in attendance. Media representatives have been invited to cover the ceremony and must register in advance.
The bench is part of the UN’s Orange the World campaign, which has raised awareness about gender-based violence since 1991. This initiative uses orange as a symbol of hope and solidarity.
The new Orange Bench will serve as a visible reminder of Hamburg’s stance against gender-based violence. The campaign continues to encourage public awareness and action. Officials have urged residents to engage with the initiative and support its goals.
