#Day13 of #16Days of Activism

Today, we focus on the vital role men must play as allies in ending Violence Against Women and Girls such as, speaking out against harmful behaviours and attitudes, amplifying the voices of women and girls, and educating themselves and others about the impact of VAWG.
