Are you taking part in the campaign to challenge attitudes to gender-based violence?
Campaigners around the world are uniting for 16 days of activism to challenge attitudes on violence against women and girls. The campaign began on Tuesday to mark the UN's international day for the elimination of violence against women, and will end on human rights day on 10 December.
Organisers are encouraging community activists, NGOs, businesses and governments to join a local campaign or lead their own. Events include a youth campaign taking anti-violence messages to the streets of Cambodia and film screenings in Uganda depicting what life is like for women. The UN is encouraging people to turn their neighbourhoods orange, the colour of the campaign.
