The 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, a global campaign spanning from 25 November through 10 December, is taking place this year against the backdrop of an unprecedented global outcry.
The UNiTE Campaign is calling on everyone to join the movement to end violence against women, using the colour orange to make your action visible. One in three women and girls experience violence in their lifetime—that is one too many.
On November 25, 2017: Your Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Women's Shelter will be in the mall and we are calling on you to help us to collect much needed funds to keep our doors open. It costs $109/day to care for women in crisis. Be a part of the solution and join us. In person or online as we campaign for our Shelter.
No matter where violence against women happens, what form it takes, and whom it impacts, it must be stopped. The promise of the Sustainable Development Goals—to leave no one behind—cannot be fulfilled without ending violence against women.
This event is supported by Hornsby and Ku-ring-gai Councils and the team of Westfield Hornsby.
