Advocacy
Reclaim the Night is a global activist event that calls for the elimination of gendered violence, an end to victim-blaming, and for actions to build safe and just communities.
Held all over the world on the last Friday in October, Reclaim the Night is about taking over public space – we will be loud, proud, fabulous and fun on Kaurna Yarta.
We are anti-racist and for streets that are free of hate. We are powerfully trans and sex worker inclusive. Everyone is welcome. Women and gender diverse people, First Nations people, CALD people, and people with disability to the front.
