Day 14 | Orange the World Campaign 🧡

Today, we spent time with the wonderful students of Funtaj International School as part of our ongoing partnership with UN Women to raise awareness on digital violence against women and girls.

We had a great session talking about:

•⁠ ⁠What digital violence really is

•⁠ ⁠How it can show up around them

•⁠ ⁠Why safe and respectful online behaviour matters

•⁠ ⁠What the law says about digital abuse

To make it fun and practical, we played two interactive games:

🎯 Spot the Red Flag – helping students recognise harmful online behaviour

🗣️ Stand Up, Speak Out – encouraging them to speak up and support others online

The students were engaged, thoughtful, and full of great questions. It was a rewarding experience seeing how eager they were to learn and be part of the solution.

A big thank you to the management of Funtaj International School for welcoming us so warmly. Together, we are helping build safer and kinder online communities.

Scaling Heights and Crossing Borders

A collaboration between Inner Wheel District 331 members from Miri and Kuching (Sarawak) and Kota Kinabalu (Sabah); and members of the Rotary Club of Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei.

The November 2025 State Elections in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, presented an unexpected hurdle for the local Inner Wheel Clubs, delaying their Orange The World (OTW) events until early December. Rather than dampening spirits, the delay fuelled a determination to think "outside the box" and find new ways to amplify their message.

A Spectacular Summit "Soft Launch"

The Campaign achieved a literal and symbolic high point even before the official 16 Days of Activism began. Inspired by the OTW cause shared by Inner Wheel friends during their visit to Sabah, two Rotarians and friends of Inner Wheel from Brunei, and Miri, Sarawak, brought OTW to the summit of Borneo on 24th October 2025, in a show of solidarity.

Despite the inclement weather that weekend, the skies cleared just long enough for the climbers to reach the 4,095.2-metre summit of Mount Kinabalu before torrential rains and heavy clouds enveloped the mountain: a powerful symbol of resilience in the face of adversity.

Advocacy Across the Region

Once the elections concluded, the momentum shifted into high gear across District 331 with a series of OTW Walks and impactful community events organised by the Clubs in Sabah and Sarawak.

Borderless Fellowship

The 2025 Campaign culminated in a powerful display of international solidarity. The final OTW Global Walk took place on 13th December 2025 in Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei, where Inner Wheel members from Miri, Kuching and Kota Kinabalu joined their Rotary partners-in-service from the Rotary Club of Bandar Seri Begawan, and guests for a walk through the pristine Jalan Menteri Besar Park. The day concluded with a fellowship lunch, deepening the bond between the two organisations.

A Lasting Impact

For the Inner Wheel Clubs of District 331, the 2025 OTW Campaign was more than a series of events; it was a bridge. It successfully raised urgent awareness for the need to “End Violence Against Women” across Malaysian Borneo and Brunei, while fostering a renewed partnership with Rotary that promises many more joint community service projects and activities in the years to come.

NATIONAL COUNCIL of Italy

FORUM #genererispetto – educating for respect, generating equality and freedom

On Thursday 13 November, the Council Chamber of the Province of Padua hosted the conference #generƏrispetto - Educating for respect, generating equality and freedom, promoted by the National Council of Inner Wheel Italy as part of the national project dedicated to education for respect and the international campaign “Orange the World” by UN Women, supported by International IW. It was an intense, well-attended meeting that brought together authoritative voices in pursuit of a common goal: to build a culture of respect to combat gender-based violence. Nearly 200 people followed the Forum remotely, while the audience in the hall included numerous representatives of institutions and associations.

The discussion addressed crucial issues: the problem of reporting, the wage gap, care work, and models of control still rooted in society, outlining proposals ranging from the role of justice to the centrality of schools and the responsibility of the media.

The President of the National Council, Amelia Vella Sales, reiterated Inner Wheel Italy's commitment to promoting a culture of respect and equality, recalling that change requires an integrated vision: ‘We need to put everything in place: join forces, work together, take preventive action. Only in this way will it be possible to achieve cultural progress through education.’

The conference confirmed the importance of building solid networks between institutions, associations, schools and citizens. This is a further step in the awareness-raising process that Inner Wheel continues to pursue with competence, determination and civic responsibility.

IW club of Chennai Presidency, India - auto drivers pledge against violence

From an article in Adyar Times:

In a unique awareness initiative, the Inner Wheel Club of Chennai Presidency, supported by Ward 170 (Kotturpuram) Councillor K. R. Kathir Murugan and District Chairman Fathima Nasira, organised an ‘Orange the World’ campaign for over 100 auto drivers in Kotturpuram on June 26 at Infinity Park (Kotturpuram).

The program focused on educating men about how violence against women negatively impacts their own lives and growth, emphasising that family prosperity stems from the well-being of all members. Acclaimed author and trainer Ganesh engaged the audience, discussing how psychological pressure can lead to taking out frustration on loved ones.

Fathima Nasira passionately urged the men to uplift women in their lives, making a profound impact. A participant’s spontaneous summary of the program highlighted its successful message delivery.

The event culminated with a spirited oath to be ‘real men’ and foster a world without violence, promoting harmonious living. The Councillor praised the initiative, pledging support for future programs in his ward, “Change one person, and an entire society will change!”

District 301, India - the Empathy board game

The board game - Empathy - designed by Dr Manisha Kaushik, district chairman (2024-2025).

This game is based on compassion and a need to discuss & communicate on matters we normally don't want to talk about. It ensures involving different age groups & hearing more point of views.

This game promotes awarness, compassion for all, is engaging and brings lots of learning coupled with fun.

The idea was to make sure that burning topics like Violence Against Women & girls is also brought forward and we voice our thoughts & make a difference in society.

The Empathy game has a board, cards & dice. It is made from recycled paper and follows the 3 R's theory of reuse ,recycle & reduce. The target audience can be of varied age groups.

This year the board game was distributed in schools, orphanages & old age Homes. It has received very positive feedback. It can be published in several languages, is cost effective and helps to reduce carbon footprint.
