A team of 60 men and women made up of volunteers and Police officers have embarked on a campaign to end violence against women and children and freeing Fiji from pornography.

The Day 2 of the 2022 Duavata West Champs 4 Wellness Marathon got underway in Tavua today.

The campaign sees volunteers distribute awareness materials to schools, villages and settlements providing an opportunity for men and boys to advocate on anti-pornography and non-violence throughout Fiji.

Police say as well as promoting wellness, the team aims to reach out to as many people to support the voices of women and children facing any form of violence beginning from Namaka, Nadi to Lautoka, Ba, Rakiraki, Nausori, Suva, Navua, Sigatoka and back to their final destination in Namaka.
