Council is proud to support the global 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, running from 25 November to 10 December.  These 16 days include the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women (25 November), the International Day of People Living with a Disability (3 December), and International Human Rights Day (10 December).
