FS marks violence against women day

(ANSA) - Rome, November 25 - State railway company Ferrovie dello Stato (FS) marked the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women on Wednesday by renewing its partnership with WeWorld Onlus in projects to raise awareness of the scourge. These include 'Help Women's Center' involving training for FS help centre staff in Rome and Naples.
    In addition, FS has prepared 50,000 brochures for distribution on Frecciarossa trains running between Milan and Naples and in 15 help centres in major Italian stations containing useful information for victims of maltreatment and abuse. "The aim is to sensitise passengers and citizens about a social scourge that cannot and must not be relegated to the private sphere, but concerns all of us," a statement said.
