About This Quote

The 25th anniversary of 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence day, October 10th, marks an important time to reflect on how far we've come since the beginning of this movement. Each year for the past 25 years, women and men across the world have come together to take action against gender-based violence. There is no doubt that we've made progress across the globe. However, there is still much work to be done to end violence against women and girls.

We must continue to raise awareness about the realities of violence against women and girls, challenge harmful attitudes that lead to violence, and work to end gender-based violence. The voices of survivors demand it. They say no more!
