Amnesty Feminists Campaign Launch: In Partnership with Cheer Up Luv

Join Amnesty Feminists and Cheer Up Luv for the launch of Don’t be a bystander, a new campaign tackling male violence against women and girls (MVAWG). The event is organised with SOAS Amnesty Society and SOAS Intersectional Feminist Society during the annual 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence.

There will be an exhibition by Cheer Up Luv, a photography project and campaign by Eliza Hatch retelling survivors experiences and tackling gender based violence. As well as exhibiting featured portraits and stories from the series, guests are invited to write reflections and contribute their experiences to the exhibition, if comfortable to do so.

Guests will be invited to explore the exhibition and enjoy free refreshments before joining us for a panel discussion on what it will take to end male violence against women and girls in our universities.

Amnesty Feminists will then set out what Don’t be a bystander demands and why students are our first spotlight, before chairing a panel with Eliza Hatch, investigative journalist Ellie Flynn and others. There'll be plenty of time for questions, discussion and opportunities to get involved.
