25 November is designated as the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, which also launches the annual 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence campaign. In his speech marking the occasion, the UN Secretary-General says, “It is time for united action from all of us, so that women and girls around the world can live free from harassment, harmful practices, and all other forms of violence.” Pictured here are students of the Nour Al Huda Qoran School in Abu Shouk camp for the displaced, near El Fasher, North Darfur.
