Ema Helena stands against gender-based violence and encourages victims to seek help and support
On November 25, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, Miss World Croatia, Ema Helena, shared a powerful reminder about the reality many women face in silence. She emphasized that violence against women is not someone else’s story, but a lived experience for countless women who endure it quietly and without support. Every woman, she noted, deserves safety, respect, and a life free from fear.
Ema called on the public to take action if they are victims or witnesses, stressing that help and support are available and that speaking openly about the issue is essential to creating a safer environment for all.

Miss World Croatia encouraged everyone to stand together, raise awareness, and support those affected by violence.
In addition, recently Ema Helena also presented a selection of her official Miss World Croatia portraits, photographed by Zvonimer Ferina.
