16 days of action
![](https://www.faithaction.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/domestic_abuse_cover.png)
One in four women and one in six men experience domestic violence or abuse at some point in their life. And many of them will have some contact with a faith community.
The period we are currently in – 25 November to 10 December – forms 16 days of activism to eliminate violence against women and girls. There’s also a 16 Days of Action campaign to encourage workplaces do more to help their employees who endure domestic violence, train those who witness it, and to protect staff as a whole.
If you belong to a faith community, whatever the faith, we have resources that can help you. From films of faith leaders talking about domestic violence to a booklet full of useful advice and links to organisations offering practical help, we have tools to support faith groups.
