16 Days of Activism

Join us from November 25 – December 10 for 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence! The #16Days campaign started way back in 1992 and has exploded into a global digital mega-activism campaign. Bookended by two international days of observance, International Day Against Violence Against Women (Nov 25) and International Human Rights Day (Dec 10), the 16 days also encompasses other observances like World AIDS Day.

Whew, it’s a rip-roaring, all-hands-on-deck social media extravaganza that you won’t want to miss! From live Tweet-ups to messages from world leaders, the #16Days are action packed with inspiration and education. Follow our social media daily on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and LinkedIn. Our Twitter account, @USNC_UNWomen, will reflect the latest activity by updating the most often. Use our hashtag #16DaysUSNC to find the party! We look forward to activating and interacting with you in over the next 16 days. Let’s show the world what a fabulous community of friends and supporters we are here at USNC; after all, the world is watching!
