This fonds delves into the initiatives of the Women's Urgent Action and Women's Memorial Society, focusing on addressing violence against women and highlighting the contributions of Donna F. Johnson, a key figure in the creation of the Women's Monument. In response to the tragic 1989 Polytechnique Shooting, Johnson organized numerous vigils and played a role in the monument's establishment in Minto Park, Ottawa. It encompasses her 1998 conference paper, "How One Canadian Community is Responding to the Murder of Women," presented at the International Conference on Family Violence in Singapore. This work showcases the Women's Urgent Action group's proactive effort in combating male violence and addressing femicide. Spanning from 1990 to 2000, this fonds includes press notes, budgeting notices, and collaborative presentation ideas for monument planning and various vigils honoring women. Throughout, it provides insights into the community's efforts to minimize violence and honor its victims. The collection maintains its original order, inspired by the tabs of a binder created by the donor, Donna Johnson, showcasing monument preparation, vigil planning, and long-term initiatives to honor affected women.
