The ad hoc committee<br />
An ad hoc committee of member<br />
groups in the <strong>Deutscher</strong> <strong>Frauenrat</strong><br />
was also actively involved in preparing<br />
for the campaign. The basis for their<br />
action was a resolution passed by the<br />
General Assembly of the <strong>Deutscher</strong><br />
<strong>Frauenrat</strong> in 2005 to support the<br />
campaign in imaginative and wideranging<br />
ways as well as locally<br />
wherever possible, i.e. with special<br />
attention to the twelve cities that<br />
were to host the World Cup games.<br />
Regional alliances<br />
The campaign had a decentralised<br />
character. Both the regional and local<br />
chapters of the network partners as<br />
well as the member organisations<br />
of the <strong>Deutscher</strong> <strong>Frauenrat</strong> were<br />
called upon to form regional and local<br />
alliances and carry out joint actions.<br />
Numerous other initiatives and<br />
organisations joined the campaign<br />
following the appeal of 8 March<br />
2006 (International Women‘s Day).<br />
Especially during the period between<br />
the opening game of the World<br />
Cup on June 9 2006 and the final<br />
game on July 9, many activities were<br />
carried out throughout the country<br />
under the motto of “Final Whistle<br />
– Stop Forced Prostitution“ (<strong>Abpfiff</strong><br />
– Schluss mit Zwangsprostitution).
