🧡 Today begins the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, a global campaign dedicated to eliminating violence against women and gender-diverse people. Started by activists in 1991, these 16 days run from November 25 (International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women) through December 10 (Human Rights Day), symbolizing that gender-based violence is a critical human rights issue. This year, we continue to call for action, education, and support for survivors everywhere. Join us in raising awareness and advocating for policies that create safe, equitable environments. Together, we can build a world where everyone is free from violence. 🧡 #16DaysOfActivism #EndGenderBasedViolence #WomensEconomicCouncil #SupportSurvivors #SafeSpaces
