🌐 The 16 Days of Activism runs from Nov 25 (International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women) to Dec 10 (Human Rights Day). It's not just a campaign; it's a call to action. We contribute to a global movement committed to dismantling structures perpetuating GBV

#GBV disrupts economic opportunities, directly impacting food security. It erodes community resilience and safety. Recognizing patriarchy and GBV as foundational issues, we advocate for safer spaces to foster stronger, more secure communities. #EndGBV #FoodSecurity #16Days
