2002 Sixteen days of Peace Campaign

During the period leading up to the 16 days of activism, GL and its partner organisations offered training to gender activists on how to run and communicate successful campaigns. The training was offered in three provinces in Souh Africa as well as in Lesotho for the regional component.

Based on the training they received more than forty organisations nationally and regionally ran campaigns with varying themes that received vast media coverage.

A web-based campaign was also run on this site.

The funding and support to conduct the training workshops and sustain the momentum of the campaigns was received from the Australian Aid, the Open Society Foundation of South Africa as well the voluntary services organisation.
