The 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence begins on the 25th of November.
The UN Women’s global campaign is a call to ending violence against women and girls across the world. Every year, the campaign commences on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, and ends on December 10th, Human Rights Day.
UN Women have four strategic priorities to champion women. The 16 Days campaign pushes to achieve their third priority: for all women and girls to live a life free from violence.
Gender equality is a basic human right. Empowering women is essential to the fabric of fair and just nations. Without women, we are nothing.
