16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence
We at the AFSC Women's Program would like to express our deep appreciation for your enthusiastic participation in the recent 2003 campaign: 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence. We look forward to hearing more about your ideas for actions to address these issues in your lives, communities, and AFSC program work.
As you know, 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence is an annual worldwide women's human rights campaign spearheaded by the Center for Women's Global leadership at Rutgers University. A comprehensive list of global campaigning efforts can be found at:

The following are links to groups that are vital to AFSC's participation in the campaign, as well as other feminist resources to draw upon to challenge gender violence:
