The call to end violence against women (VAW) never ends, and as part of its 18-day campaign, the United Nations (UN) Gender Thematic Group (GTG) has brought its experiential traveling exhibition “Walk in Her Shoes” to the University of the Philippines (UP) Diliman.

In partnership with various groups and institutions, including the UP Center for Women’s and Gender Studies (UPCWGS), Bayi, Inc., SafeCity, the UP Center for Women’s Studies Foundation, Inc.
