The 10th Women's Solidarity March in Vilnius aims to raise awareness about women's freedoms and rights.

In Vilnius, the 10th Women’s Solidarity March is being organized with the theme of freedom, emphasizing the importance of living without violence, control, and exploitation. Organizers state that participants will take to the streets to vocally advocate for women's rights, including the freedom to embody their own identities, make personal decisions, and assert themselves in a society where they deserve to be heard and treated equally.

Viktorija Kolbešnikova, communications lead at the Equal Opportunities Development Center, highlighted that this year's focus is on inclusivity, asserting the necessity of freedom for all women, regardless of their circumstances. The march aims to represent a diverse group of women, including those with children, women who have chosen not to have children, women with disabilities, and those facing economic insecurity or structural inequality. This inclusivity message underscores the multifaceted challenges women face across different backgrounds and situations.

The event is not only a demonstration but also a call for recognition and support for women from various ethnic, cultural, and community backgrounds in Lithuania. With many voices coming together, the march seeks to create a space for safety and equality, reinforcing the importance of women's rights in the face of ongoing societal challenges and advocating for a future where all women can live freely and safely in their bodies, making choices that are right for them.
