SEBAC-Nepal successfully concluded the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence on 10 December, coinciding with International Human Rights Day. The campaign had begun on 25 November, marking the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.

The closing ceremony was carried out across various locations of Achham district, where a series of meaningful activities; including school-based programmes, rallies, interactive sessions, and community engagements, were organized.

Guided by the campaign slogan “Unite to End Digital Violence Against All Women and Girls,” this year’s initiative helped raise awareness, amplify community voices, and create safe spaces for dialogue on digital safety and gender justice.

As this campaign comes to an end, our commitment remains stronger than ever. SEBAC-Nepal continues its journey to uphold human rights, end gender-based violence, and raise voice against all forms of discrimination and violence; today and every day.

The 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, observed every year from 25th November (the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women); to 10th December (Human Rights Day); has officially begun.

SEBAC-Nepal marked the first day of this global campaign in Achham district of Sudurpaschim Province, celebrating this year’s theme:
“Unite to End Digital Violence Against All Women and Girls.”

In an era where digital spaces shape everyday life; online harassment, cyberstalking, non-consensual sharing of images, misinformation, and technology-facilitated abuse have become increasingly pervasive. These forms of digital violence disproportionately impact women and girls, limiting their freedom, safety, and participation in public life.

Where Gender-based violence (GBV) as a whole still remains a global human rights crisis, affecting women and girls across all identities and backgrounds, risks are even higher for those in humanitarian contexts, women with disabilities, adolescent girls, older women, and many who experience intersectional and hidden forms of violence in their daily lives; both online and offline.

The 16 Days of Activism serves as a crucial platform to raise awareness, challenge harmful norms, demand accountability, and strengthen prevention efforts at community, national, and global levels. It calls on all of us; individuals, families, institutions, and governments to stand together and champion a world free from violence.

Let us unite, open the door, take a stand, and work collectively to end violence in all its forms.
