Dublin landmarks to light up in purple in solidarity with survivors of sexual violence

Several prominent landmarks across Dublin are set to be illuminated in purple to express solidarity with survivors of sexual violence. This initiative aims to raise awareness and demonstrate public support for those who have experienced such trauma.

The campaign was prompted by findings from a recent survey, which identified the fear of not being believed as the primary obstacle preventing survivors from reporting incidents of sexual violence. By highlighting this issue through public displays, organizers seek to address the societal barriers that hinder victims from coming forward.
