#16Days: Global solidarity, local action

Feminist leaders from across the world and generations kicked off Karama’s conference to mark the 16 Days of Activism earlier this week.

Our first session saw an intergenerational dialogue between academic and activist Charlotte Bunch, one of the founders of the 16 Days campaign, alongside young activists Amani Aruri from Palestine, and Hayat Mirshad from Lebanon.

The discussion explored the roots of the 16 Days campaign, which marks its 30th anniversary this year, and looked at the barriers that remain in the work to end violence against women and girls.

The full session is available now to watch on YouTube.
