Warid Joins White Ribbon Campaign

Warid Telecom joined hands with White Ribbon Campaign (WRCP) to spreading the message to end violence against women and girls. The company sent an awareness SMS to its subscribers and spread the message on its social mediums and the company website.

The White Ribbon Day against gender inequalities is an international campaign initiated by White Ribbon Campaign in Pakistan. It starts from November 25- International Day against Violence against Women- and ends on December 10- International Human Rights Day- to symbolically link violence against women and human rights and to emphasise that biases of all sorts are a violation of human rights.
