The 16 Days campaign is an opportunity to show international solidarity in the fight to end violence against women. This year's theme-- From Peace in the Home to Peace in the World highlights the link between militarism and gender violence, as well as the role of women as peacemakers in their own homes and nations. Join Amnesty International to stand against gender violence and promote women's rights to peace and freedom from violence.
