“CAPSA supports the importance of ethical communication when reporting on substance use health and gender-based violence. Check out Dianova’s campaign link to read our featured article and find more information.”
What you see today started months ago — long before the cameras rolled or the visuals were designed.
The 25 November campaign, “Let’s Change the Narrative”, was created because too many stories about violence against women are told in ways that harm survivors, distort reality, or erase context.
And when harmful substance use enters the picture, the stigma often doubles.
So we decided to rebuild the way we communicate.
To put dignity first.
To let facts speak louder than fear.
To create materials that journalists, NGOs, educators, parents, students and communities can use to understand and talk about GBV responsibly.
What the public sees today is the result of months of research, collaboration with experts in ethical communication and gender-based violence, fact-checking, survivor-centered consultation, visual strategy and evidence-based storytelling.
At Dianova International we have created a collection designed to spark change, that blends emotion and evidence:
🎥 A video to open hearts
📘 An eBook to guide ethical communication
📊 An infographic to change how we see the issue
📄 Data that exposes the real numbers
📰 Articles and resources designed for learning and dialogue
All of it is now available here:

This campaign belongs to all of us.
✨ Read. Learn. Comment. Share. Stand with survivors.
