About the event

AWRC Open Day: 16 Days Of Activism
Celebrate Human Rights Day with AWRC’s Open Day, held during the 16 Days of Activism, to stand united against gender-based violence

About this Event

AWRC cordially invites you to our Open Day on Wednesday, 10th December 2025.

As part of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence, this event is an opportunity to meet our team, learn more about our work and have meaningful discussions around how to end violence against women and girls (VAWG).

The event also coincides with Human Rights Day, reminding us that the movement to eliminate gender-based violence is a vital part of the global struggle for equality, dignity, and justice.

In keeping with our intersectional, Black feminist ethos, the day will shine a light on the voices and experiences of different Black, Minority & Ethnic (BME) communities, while bringing together professionals, partners, survivors, and allies in strength and solidarity.

The Open Day will include:

  • Discussions on AWRC projects and impact
  • Guest speakers addressing community-specific challenges and resilience
  • Space to reflect, connect, and share ideas for change
