Welcome to the Center for Women’s Global Leadership’s digital platform, for the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence Campaign! We aim to be a global hub, amplifying the work and voices of thousands of organizations and leaders around the world, who run #16days every year. Since launching 16 Days in 1991, we have watched it grow and expand, raising awareness about widespread violence and harassment; and now, choosing to end it, in the world of work.The #16days movement is as strong as ever, thanks to the tireless efforts of feminists and women’s rights organizations around the world. We are here to showcase your work, and foster collaboration and the exchange of ideas and resources.
