The first nationwide campaign on the violence against women Fifth Women has had deep impact on the public opinion. The message "Every fifth woman is abused" has become to a fact often repeated in media and news. The women NGOs that launched in the year 2001/2002 the campaign on violence against the women "The Fifth Woman" founded the umbrella NGO "Initiative Fifth Woman".

Knowing how to respond to violence is as important as preventing it. This is webpage is an important resource to respond to violence against women by empowering individuals through education and training. RAINN ( Rape Abuse and Incest National Network) has an option on its website where trainings online for individuals are offered on a broad range of topics. For instance education on how to respond to cases of rape, date rape and drug-facilitated sexual assault is available. I believe that this is an outstanding source because as it is important to know about statistics and facts, it is also equally important to know how to respond to cases of violence against women or men.
