Against Gender-Based Violence

We’re proud to bring 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence to our community once again in 2025.

This global campaign led annually by UN Women, runs from 25 November (International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women) to 10 December (Human Rights Day).

In Australia, this year’s campaign highlights digital violence — including online harassment, stalking, and coercive control — a growing and often unseen form of abuse that can have lasting impacts.

Our vision

At TAFE Gippsland, it’s our job not just to imagine a gender equal world free from violence, but to strive everyday day to achieve one. Our vision of a skilled and thriving Gippsland heavily relies on a safe and healthy workplace, diverse workforce and growing inclusive educational pathways that lead to jobs and support lifelong learning.

Our events

This year, our campaign launches on 18 November and wraps up with a community walk around Lake Kernot on 2 December.
