SUMMARY:Combatting Gender-Based Violence: Strengthening Our Community During the 16 Days of Activism

Through insightful discussions\, we’ll explore the intersectionality of these issues and work towards fostering awareness and change. \nDuring the event\, attendees will have the opportunity to engage with the community\, ask questions\, and participate in meaningful conversations. \nWe are delighted to provide refreshments to foster a welcoming and inclusive environment. \nTo be a part of this important dialogue during the 16 Days of Activism\, please register by filling out the Registration Form. \nLet’s unite to break the silence\, raise awareness\, and contribute to the ongoing efforts to combat gender-based violence.
