White Ribbon Day – 25 November 2023

November 21, 2023

White Ribbon Day on Saturday 25 November 2023 is the start of the annual campaign to end violence against women and girls: 16 Days of Action.

Violence experienced by women and girls takes many forms. Some behaviours and words may seem ‘harmless’ but normalising them ignores the short- and long-term effects on women and can lead to more extreme violence.
