This year, we are aligning ourselves with the UN’s theme of showing how you care.

By using the hand pattern which you can download below (or drawing around your own hand), you can write a message inside, to show what you’re doing or what you pledge to do, to help inspire others and celebrate the power we have collectively.

This could be on a personal or organisational level. For example, engaging with grassroots feminist organisations, calling out bad behaviour when you see it or how you support women in the workplace.

Then we’d like you to take a picture with your hands in your organisations, or as an individual, to show your support. These will be shared throughout the 16 days of activism, creating a ‘virtual vigil’.

Please can you send these photos, alongside any message to Lauren at [email protected].

These need to be sent by Monday 20th November to ensure there is plenty of time to organise them for social media platforms.
