A GLOBAL CALL TO ACTION

AUTHORS AGAINST ABUSE

SILENT AUCTION

Where Words Ignite Change

Throughout history, authors have shaped revolutions, transformed societies, and given voice to the unheard. Their words spark movements, challenge injustice, and bring hidden truths to light.

Today, we invite you to be part of something bigger. Authors Against Abuse is not just an event—it is a movement. A historic gathering of authors, activists, and thought leaders uniting to combat domestic violence worldwide.

This is your moment to stand for change—to use your platform to raise awareness, inspire action, and be part of a cause that will impact generations.

Why This Event Matters

Literature has always been a force for social change. From Uncle Tom’s Cabin to I Am Malala, the written word has the power to shift perspectives and shape policy.

1 in 3 women worldwide experience domestic violence—yet many suffer in silence. 99% of survivors also endure financial abuse, leaving them trapped with no way out.

Authors have influence. And together, we make the conversation impossible to ignore.

This event is for those who believe in the power of storytelling to inspire action.
