What is ’16 Days of Activism’?
The movement from November 25 (International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women) to December 10 (Human Rights Day) is called ’16 Days of Activism’.
The 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence is a yearly global campaign that begins on November 25th, which marks the International Day for the Elimination of Gender-Based Violence, and ends on December 10th, Human Rights Day.
Launched by activists during the first Women’s Global Leadership Institute in 1991, this campaign serves as a rallying call for people and groups worldwide to advocate for the prevention and eradication of violence against women and girls.
