Join @worldrenewcanada, Citizens for Public Justice, and @ijmcanada for the virtual launch of this year’s 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence campaign. Our theme for 2024 is "A Community that Cares: Taking Action Against Gender-Based Violence". 

📅 Monday, November 25 
⌚ 9 – 11:30 a.m. EST 
💻 Virtual (click the link in our bio to register)

Together, we’ll explore how a united effort from faith-based organizations, governments, law enforcement, and communities can help eliminate gender-based violence (GBV). Despite its widespread impact, GBV remains a silent, yet vicious crisis. Abuse rates against women and girls continue to rise globally, fueled by harmful cultural practices and patriarchal systems that devalue women and girls. 

To register for a powerful event where we will lament the realities of GBV and stand in solidarity with those affected, click the link in our bio. 🔗
