CARLTON will run out donning its iconic orange socks to raise awareness for Carlton's flagship initiative - Carlton Respects.

It will be the seventh straight AFLW Carlton Respects Game where Carlton will wear the orange socks, with the game making its first appearance in 2016.

Raising awareness for gender equality for the prevention of violence against women, it is a cause that continues to have an impact on the foundation of the football club as a whole.

Now reaching into the education space with the 'Road to Respect' program, Carlton is delivering a digital platform to primary school children, educating them on gender equality, being a buddy and deconstructing stereotypes to stop disrespect before it starts.

Carlton has delivered the program to over 10 000 students, using the Club’s platform to spread the message of 'action through education' on a wider scale.
