Propaganda.
Information: In argumentative or persuasive types of essays, you want to convince the reader about something, and in some case, they are used to make you believe in something. Why? Either you have some objective or point of view that you want others to believe. That objective can be malicious or pure.
Propaganda is also the same. It can be positive and negative. However, it is mostly used in a negative connotation.
Anyway, the answer is: Propaganda!
The words that are unscrambled are:
AUDIENCE and ASSEMBLY
An important detail missing is the date of the event !
The main pro is that this is a worldwide initiative, so the message spreads everywhere - from the Third-World countries, to the developed countries, as no society is immune to mistreating and abusing women and children. The women and children who have been victims can feel that they are not alone and left to themselves. Also, this campaign is meant to contribute to the shift of the paradigm. Politicians and high officials are supposed to use the opportunity to talk about the issues.
However, there are also the cons, as in every campaign. First of all, in many countries, this campaign has turned into a celebration of women's rights, instead of being, first and foremost, an awareness-raising campaign that wants to change things for the better. Second, in some countries (such as South Africa), churches are included in the campaign - the same churches that probably wouldn't accept and help beaten or raped lesbians, for example.
