EU Awareness Centre Statement on the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence

The EU Awareness Centre joins the global community in marking the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence. Violence against women and girls remains one of the most pervasive human rights violations, undermining dignity, equality, and the foundations of democratic society.

As an organisation committed to European values, human rights, and resilient democracies, we stand in solidarity with survivors and advocate for stronger protections, effective prevention, and zero tolerance for all forms of gender-based violence.

We call on governments, civil society, and international partners to work together to ensure that every woman and girl can live free from fear, coercion, and harm.

Knowledge Against Manipulation – and always, against violence!
