16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence

Every year we mark 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence—a global campaign that runs from the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (25 November) until Human Rights Day (10 December). It reminds us that violence against women and girls is a human rights issue.

In times of crisis, gender-based violence increases, but by talking about it we can:

  • Raise awareness on what it looks like
  • Help survivors know they are not alone and support them to access services

For more information on how to access services if you have experienced or witnessed violence, visit: help.unhcr.org/lebanon/gender-based-violence
