UN Women, November 2011 (video) - Youth play an important role in shaping the future free of violence. With support from the UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women, Youth Star Cambodia enlisted 20 university graduates for volunteer service in rural districts for youth-led mobilization to address domestic violence. By empowering their peers to realize their potential as community actors, Youth Star volunteers opened a space for dialogue and vitalized communities to take action on previously taboo issues.
