The Uncommon Box stands for the rights that help individuals to lead the most meaningful life they can. It is this inspiring thought that led us to collaborate with Safecity, an international not-for-profit organisation in a special 2-week campaign called simply #TUBWITHSAFECITY
We now invite YOU to be a part of this international campaign and win official recognition from The Uncommon Box and SafeCity for your creative contributions in any of the 4 sections mentioned below.
Theme: Raising Awareness and Voices against Sexual Violence.
Sexual violence is a global pandemic of crimes like sexual assault, rape, and sexual abuse against anyone, anytime and anywhere. It is a silent epidemic, often going unreported because of the stigma attached to the victim.
It is time things changed and we can bring about the change.
Join The Uncommon Box and Safecity in this unique campaign.
Duration of Campaign: 15th September to 28th September 2017.
Result : The best creative contributions for each category will be featured on our website www.theuncommonbox.com on 5th October.
