GLOBAL CAMPAIGN FOR PREVENTION OF
ABUSE & VIOLENCE AGAINST CHILDREN & YOUTH
Why 19 Days of Activism
After 10 years of campaigning to annually mark the World Day for
Prevention of Child Abuse – 19 November and building an international coalition
of actors and partners, the time has come to expand our outreach by launching
the WWSF 19 Days of activism global campaign 1-19 November.
What Is the 19-Day Campaign?
A multi-issue coalition of diverse organizations and partners,
including young people, involved in the fight against one or more of the 19
abuse issues listed in the Prevention Kit, working for a social transformation,
mobilizing agents for change and informed prevention actors to help create
public awareness and support at the national, regional and/or international
level.
Aims of the 19-Day Campaign
By focusing during 19 days on the prevention of diverse types of
abuse and violence against children and youth, the campaign aims to continue to
bring to light the alarming problem, its multifaceted aspects, and the need to
generate sufficient grass-roots interest and government and public support for
better prevention measures.
