Channel: NYC Mayor's Office
Date: 25/11/2022

The 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence (GBV) is an annual campaign has launched! Since its founding in 1991, the campaign has become an international movement to prevent and eliminate GBV.
 

Beginning November 25, International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, and ends on December 10, Human Rights Day.

The Mayor’s Office to End Domestic and Gender-Based Violence (ENDGBV), the Commission on Gender Equity (CGE), and the Mayor’s Office of Equity (MOE) co-lead the NYC campaign, in collaboration with partner organizations and city agencies.

The campaign is intersectional, recognizing how multiple forms of discrimination overlap, and calls to end GBV against all people, regardless of age, ethnicity/race, faith, gender identity or expression, immigrant status, physical and mental ability, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status, among other protected classes.

The 2022 campaign theme is “End Gender-Based Violence in Every Borough,” to reflect the need for all New Yorkers to take action against GBV, starting in their communities.
