The 16 Days of activism against Gender-Based Violence (GBV) starts with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women on November 25 and culminates with Human Rights Day on December 10. These two markers symbolise what we know to be true: Achieving gender equality is not possible without addressing GBV, a human rights abuse that holds back women and girls from fully and safely participating in social, economic, and political life. Ultimately, GBV harms all of us, regardless of who experiences it, and prevents our communities from reaching their full potential.
