From November 25 until December 10, Canada observes 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence. This international campaign raises awareness of gender-based violence and calls us to take action to make our communities safer for everyone. 

This year, the Student Union Mental Health team and the Sexual Violence Prevention & Response Office (SVPRO) invite everyone to join us on November 27, from 12:00 - 3:00 pm at McMillan Hall, W.A. Murphy Student Centre, as we make a community “quilt” for gender-based violence prevention. 

Each participant may create a canvas square for the quilt with a message about gender-based violence prevention:

  • Paint an image 
  • Create a poem 
  • Write a message of support to survivors

Art supplies, snacks, and some goodies will be provided!
