16.01.2022 Today is the United Nation’s International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. Held on November 25 marks the beginning of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence an international campaign that aims to create awareness of the fact that violence against women is a human rights issue. Since 2009, on every November 25 people walk against family violence. Maybe you've seen it in previous years, maybe you've been one of them. Although we can’t walk t...ogether around Melbourne’s CBD like in previous years, we can still walk or wheelchair around the block, go for a walk with a friend, or find a group and participate in a planned local event in your area - you choose. Wear something orange a facemask, hat or t-shirt and join others, show your support for victim-survivors and help send a message across Victoria that family and domestic violence is never okay. #WAFV2020 campaign image: Safe Steps
