The 16 Days of Activism Against Women and Child Abuse is an annual, united
endorsed awareness campaign that begins on 25 November, which is commemorated
as the international day for no violence against women and children each year
and runs through to 10 December which is commemorated as international Human
Rights Day. The campaign is one element of Government, integrated and cross
sectoral drive to eliminate the abuse of women and children.
It is against this background that Government Communication and Information
System (GCIS), the Schoemansdal South African Police Service (SAPS), Nkomazi
Municipality and other non governmental organisations (NGOs) are planning for
