16 Days of Activism Against Gender- Based Violence - November 25 - December 10, 2015

Amnesty International USA Women's Human Rights Coordination Group
     Today is International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and the start of 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence.  Visit www.amnestyusa.org/16days 
Violence against women and girls is a global epidemic. Gender-based violence affects women and girls in every country, in every community. But we can end gender-based violence!

This year's theme--Make Education Safe for All--highlights the relationship between militarism and the right to education in situations of relative peace, violent conflict, and a variety of other education settings.
Throughout 16 Days, we'll feature blogs and actions on each of the following themes-- check our blog for updated content and to stay connected all 16 Days!
