E-BULLETIN, December 2020
We kick start this month’s bulletin with the Global 16 Days Campaign. 25th November marked the International Day of the Elimination of Violence against Women. The 2020 UNiTE Campaign Theme: “Orange the World: Fund, Respond, Prevent, Collect!”
The campaign that was launched by the Center for Women’s Global Leadership (CWGL) at its first Women’s Global Leadership Institute in 1991, has been used worldwide to call for the elimination of gender-based violence (GBV). In 2018, a multi-year theme focusing on ending GBV and harassment in the world of work was announced by CWGL coincided with the adoption of a historic new ILO Convention with the same focus.
This year’s Campaign will increase its efforts to amplify the voices of women workers in the informal sectors while continuing to call for the ratification of ILO Convention 190 and to end all forms of GBV in private and public spaces. Click Here for more
