The 16 Days between November 25th (The International Day to End Violence Against Women) and Dec 10th (Human Rights Day) are known as the 16 Days of Activism to End Gender Based Violence. Violence against women and girls is one of the most widespread, persistent and devastating human rights violations in our world today and is a threat to millions of girls and women online and offline. It affects women regardless of their age, background, or level of education.

On Friday November 29, 2024, we are excited to host an event at Kitchener City Hall, in the Rotunda from 11:45 am - 1:00 pm.  This free event is open to everyone.  Come and learn more about the 16 Days of Activism to End Gender Based Violence.  Hear from groups in our community who are working to end violence and support victims of violence.  Come and help ZONTA SAY NO no gender based violence.

The colour orange symbolizes a brighter future, free of violence. It also serves as a means of demonstrating your solidarity in eliminating all forms of violence and it is therefore used as the colour of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.
