From 25 November to 10 December, Wangaratta will proudly take part in the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Based Violence, a global campaign that calls for the elimination of gender based violence.
This international movement, led by the United Nations since 1991, connects communities across the world in a shared commitment to human rights, safety, and respect. It begins on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and ends on Human Rights Day, reminding us that gender based violence is a violation of fundamental human rights.
Here in Wangaratta, we’re committed to doing our part. Through local events, awareness campaigns, and community conversations, we’re working together to challenge harmful attitudes, support victim survivors, and promote equality.
Everyone has a role to play. Whether it’s attending an event, sharing a message, or simply starting a conversation, your actions matter. Check out the calendar of events below for events and activities happening in the North East region.
