The ‘Say No – Unite <strong>to</strong> <strong>End</strong> <strong>Violence</strong> <strong>against</strong> <strong>Women</strong>’ campaign has created banners in<br />

English, Spanish <strong>and</strong> French displaying the campaign message. See the organizer’s<br />

<strong>to</strong>olkit.<br />

Futures without <strong>Violence</strong> campaigns <strong>to</strong> end intimate partner violence. One major<br />

component of their programming involves working with men <strong>and</strong> boys, through their<br />

“Coaching Boys in<strong>to</strong> Men” initiative. To reach large numbers with their messaging, a<br />

large-screen billboard was launched in busy Times Square, New York City.<br />

Transportation advertisements display the message on the side or the back of buses,<br />

trains <strong>and</strong> other modes of transportation. In Asia, campaigners have used mo<strong>to</strong>r<br />

rickshaws for similar purposes – a lower-cost, eye-catching variation. In some cities,<br />

campaigners have also used other modes of transport for advertisements such as taxis,<br />

subways <strong>and</strong> trains.<br />

Examples:<br />

A sexual harassment bus campaign in Rosario, Argentina.<br />

Mo<strong>to</strong>rized rickshaws in Quezon City, the Philippines<br />
