Gießen Employment Agency installs orange bench to protest violence against women
The Employment Agency in Gießen has installed an orange bench in its entrance area as a visible symbol against violence against women. The bench features the inscription ‘No to violence against women!’ and is intended to serve as a constant reminder and a prompt for conversation regarding gender-based violence.
This initiative is part of a broader, state-wide campaign by the Federal Employment Agency in Hesse. Over the coming years, all agencies within the state are expected to be equipped with these distinctive benches to raise public awareness and encourage civil courage.
