25 November 2025 – A Time to Unveil, Unite and Commit

“Violence against women is not inevitable — it is preventable. And prevention begins with us.”

Today, on 25 November, we join voices across the globe to mark the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, and the launch of the 16 Days in WA campaign. At Marninwarntikura, this is not just a date on the calendar, it is a call to action deeply rooted in the realities and resilience of women in the Fitzroy Valley.

This moment is a chance to reflect, recommit, and raise our collective voice: to end the silence, honour survivors, and work toward communities where all women are safe, supported, and free.
