GMP’s Annual VAWG reward / recognition event will be focusing on
community champions who work to tackle VAWG / GBV, alongside partnership working – with awards for community champions and partners. Therefore this is a chance to showcase work taking place across GM in tackling GBV and which will help with delivery of the GBV Strategy.

There will be guest speakers on topics ranging from incels / the manosphere, active by-stander behaviour, case studies highlighting survivor’s voices and a 17 year old youth champion for ending gender based violence.

Approximately 80-100 people in attendance the ambition for the day is, as a collective partnership, recognise the good work being done to combat VAWG / GBV in Greater Manchester, instil confidence in our commitment to continue tackling the problem whilst acknowledging the work still to be done.

This will also provide a chance to promote aspects of the GMCA GBV Comms campaigns.
