16 Days of Activism – Webinar series

16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence (25 November – 10 December) provides an opportunity for the Respect 2040 partnership to lead a coordinated regional initiative to build community capacity and drive action to promote respect and prevent violence against women across the Barwon South West region.
