Adventist women are joined by fellow church members as they march through the streets of the Ozama, Alma Rosa and Villa Duarte communities in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, on August 18, 2012. Marchers held banners and signs against the violence towards women and children which has increased during the past few years, organizers said. The activity was organized by the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the southeast region in support of the church’s global Enditnow campaign. Photo by Clara Silvestre.
