White Ribbon Day is observed on 25 November each year and marks the beginning of the United Nations ‘16 days of activism against gender-based violence’, which runs until 10 December.
To mark the White Ribbon campaign, CNWL is hosting a series of events spanning the 16 days; featuring conversations with a variety of experts. Our main event will be held virtually on 6 December at 1pm.
This year’s theme is Connecting Stories, Changing Systems – highlighting the need to work more responsively together in order to understand the complexity of stories around domestic abuse.
