Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected and equal in their relationships, workplaces and communities.

From 25 November to 10 December, commUnity+ and Brimbank City Council are bringing the community together for the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence- a global campaign calling for the prevention and elimination of violence against women and girls.

This year’s program will create opportunities for people across Brimbank to learn, reflect and take practical action. Free activities open to the public will include Bystander Action Training, a Digital Safety Workshop, Coffee with a Lawyer sessions, community installations and educational resources.

The campaign will culminate in a Community Walk on 10 December, bringing residents, community organisations, partners and local leaders together to make a visible commitment to respect, equality and safety.

Whether you attend a workshop, start a conversation, learn how to respond safely to harmful behaviour or walk alongside your community, everyone has a role in creating change.

Join us to learn, connect and help build a Brimbank where everyone can feel safe, respected and supported.
