This November, Halton Women’s Place is proud to participate in the global 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, running from November 25, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, to December 10, Human Rights Day. This powerful campaign unites individuals, communities, and organizations to raise awareness, spark conversations, and take action to end violence against women and girls.
At Halton Women’s Place, we see firsthand the devastating impact of gender-based violence on women, families, and communities. But we also see hope—the courage of survivors, the support of allies, and the collective strength of those willing to stand up and take action.
What You’ll Learn Over the 16 Days
Throughout the 16 days, we’re sharing vital information on our social media platforms about:
The many forms of gender-based violence, from physical harm to digital abuse
How survivors are supported and how you can be an ally
The role of men and boys in challenging harmful norms and preventing violence
Resources and tools to help create safer, healthier communities for all
Each day brings a new focus, a new conversation, and an opportunity for you to get involved.
