16 DAYS OF ACTIVISM AGAINST GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE

St Mary MacKillop College is proud to participate in this year’s 16 Days of Activism againstGender-Based Violence campaign in Victoria.

The campaign will start from the 25th of November to the 10th of December. This year’s campaign encourages all Victorians to work together to prevent violence against women.

More than 1 in 3 women have experienced men’s violence and on average, a woman is killed by a man she knows every 10 days, and in 2024 that number is much higher. Safety for women is not a given in any community – and neither is respect. 

To eliminate men’s violence against women we need to address the harmful attitudes and behaviours that drive violence in society. Importantly, everyone has a role to play.

Join the 16 Days of Activism and help build communities where women are safe and equal.
