Discrimination against women remains a significant global challenge with backlash against women's human rights. Women experience discrimination in the home, public spaces and workplace. One of the manifestations of this discrimination is Violence against Women (VAW).

This course will introduce you to feminist activist approaches to eliminating discrimination against women with a focus on eliminating VAW. You will learn about the herstory of women’s movements who took on the challenge of confronting discrimination at the local and global levels. Additionally, you will learn about key United Nations mechanisms that work towards achieving gender equality.

A key output of this course is YOUR individual advocacy plan and producing an online magazine.
