Re: International Women's Week 2007

If things have changed so much take a look at the statistics about violence against women on this website

http://www.who.int/gender/violence/en/

or perhaps this one

http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/cvict.htm

or may be you could look at this site about rapes against women

http://www.rainn.org/statistics/index.html

or perhaps the figures on amnesty international's site

http://www.amnesty.org.uk/

Things might have changed for the average, white, middle class woman but around the world and in many communities throughout the UK not only have things not changed but they have got far worse.
