We would be delighted if you were able to attend our 16 Days of Activism Launch Event at Alloa Town Hall on Monday 25 November to kick off Forth Valley’s 16 days campaign.
The 16 Days of Activism is an annual international campaign to end Gender-Based Violence. Clackmannanshire’s Violence Against Women and Girls Partnership has the exciting opportunity of hosting the 16 Days of Activism launch event for Forth Valley this year.
The 16 Days of Activism Forth Valley Working Group has met monthly to plan activity for the duration of the campaign. The working group consists of support organisations, emergency services, council services and more. This year’s theme is ‘Imagine a Scotland without Gender-Based Violence’. In Forth Valley, we are adopting an arts focus to make the event more community friendly.
Our launch event will focus on community, lived experience and the concept of youth safety and happiness. In attendance, will be White Ribbon alongside other guest speakers who aim to engage our councillors and the community to sign the pledge to never commit gender-based violence. The launch event will be concluded with an interactive workshop created and taken by our school pupils and will end with a youth led march out of the Town Hall to complete a short circuit in Alloa town centre. All attendees and members of the public are welcome to join us on the march at 12pm.
