16 Days of Activism against Gender Violence: November 25 – December 10, 2004
The 16 Days of Activism against Gender Violence is an international campaign originating from the first Women's Global Leadership Institute sponsored by the Center for Women's Global Leadership (CWGL) in 1991. A central and ongoing priority for WOMANKIND Worldwide is working towards the elimination of violence against women, both nationally within the UK and internationally through partnerships with women’s groups across the world. Since 2000 we have provided annual funding and support for a number of women’s groups across Africa to participate in the 16 Days of Activism. In 2004, WOMANKIND will again collaborate with the African Women’s Development Fund (AWDF) to jointly provide small grants to African women’s organisations working to eliminate violence against women.
