For Aboriginal women, 16 Days of Activism provides a unique opportunity to amplify our voices and draw attention to our self-determined solutions to put an end to the devastating impact that gendered violence has on Aboriginal women’s and children’s lives. 

Our ACTIVEism event will explore different ways to build physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual health and wellbeing.
