Let's try to work out what can be done says Giulia's dad

(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 24 - Together we need to work out what can be done to eliminate violence against women said Gino Cecchettin, the father of slain 22-year-old Giulia, at the unveiling of a red bench to remember all victims of violence at Padua University on Friday.
    "You are the future, and each one of you has been trying to work out what was lacking at all levels, from teachers to students, to parents, because I too am asking myself questions," said Cecchettin, addressing hundreds of students in the courtyard of the faculty where his daughter studied biomedical engineering and had been due to graduate last Thursday. "Maybe by exchanging ideas, we can work out what can be done, find a protocol, a way to eliminate violence, especially violence against women," he added.
    "I could not exempt myself from being here where Giulia spent her last years of study; I too am a former student of this faculty, I did not manage to complete the course, so I invite and urge you to hang in there and keep going, otherwise you will have a major regret for the rest of your lives," said Cecchettin.
    "But today we are here for Giulia, and we must remember that something must come out of this tragic event," he continued.
    The messages, the silence, the noise "are fine", he said, "but those will come to an end.
    "I want each one of us to look every day at what we can do to improve our own lives, not with respect to ourselves but to our loved ones, our neighbours, our friends, and above all to women," said Cecchettin.
    "Nothing will bring Giulia back, but I want many good initiatives to come out of her death," he concluded. (ANSA).
