Ending gender based violence.



2nd Day of the annual campaign; the #16Daysofactivism  which will be running from November 25 to December 10.



During this period, we will campaign against all forms of gender based violence and calls for equality for girls and women. 



Every woman has experienced some form of abuse , whether emotional physical or sexual . There is a definite rape culture in the language that we use which means we are responsible and can shift our ways of presenting our support to women all around the world.



Have you noticed? Rape culture is all around us. It’s pervasive and rooted in patriarchal beliefs, power and control. It normalizes and justifies sexual violence. Here’s a small action you can take that will have a big impact to end rape culture: stop using language that blames victims, objectifies women and normalizes sexual harassment. There is no excuse for rape.
