It was started by activists at the inaugural Women’s Global Leadership Institute in 1991 and continues to be coordinated each year by the Center for Women’s Global Leadership.
2022 marks 31 years since the inception of the Global 16 Days Campaign. Inspired by the original vision and history of the Campaign, which focused on raising awareness about violence against women (VAW), and considering the continuing impunity for femicide, this year the campaign will focus on the issue of “femicide or the gender-related killing of women.”
To help with this, we’ve created a dedicated page where you will find the latest news and resources, helpful organisations, inspiring campaigners and events to help you get involved with the fight against violence.
