08/12/2023 Equality and Non-Discrimination | Women free from violence
The '16 Days of activism against gender-based violence' international Campaign, led annually by civil society, which began on 25 November – the International day for the elimination of violence against women – will end on 10 December, on the occasion of International Human Rights Day, which clearly reflects that violence against women in all their diversity, is the most widespread human rights violation worldwide, as evidenced by overwhelming figures and facts.
The PACE Committee on Equality and Non-Discrimination has been mobilising for 15 days to make this initiative visible. On the occasion of International Human Rights Day 2023, the Committee presents a set of video messages produced by different political figures and members of the Parliamentary Assembly.
