The United Nations Secretary-General launched in 2008 the campaign, UNiTE by 2030 to End Violence against Women. The signature colour of the campaign is orange. As a bright and optimistic colour, orange represents a future free from violence against women and girls.

Every year, the UNiTE campaign focuses on a specific theme in support of the global, civil-society-led 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence campaign, which kicks off on 25 November, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, and runs until 10 December, Human Rights Day.

From 25 November to 10 December every year, UNiTE calls on people everywhere to wear the colour orange and take action to end violence against women and girls in communities, at home, in public spaces, in schools and workplaces, during conflict and in times of peace.

Join digital activists globally! Access the Orange the World/UNiTE toolkit and become an activist today!
