Zonta Club of Ballarat
16 days of activism
The Club has always been active in this campaign and organised walks around 27th November.
This year we were invited to join a Committee set up by representatives of community organisations and the City of Ballarat to organise a number of functions for the 16 days. This resulted in a number of activities including speakers and art exhibitions, culminating in the walk.
This year it started on the block of Lydiard Street, near the Art Gallery led by Aboriginal dancers, along Sturt Street, turning into Camp Street and concluding in Alfred Deakin Place, where a huge crowd gathered to hear a panel of speakers.
A review meeting held after the function agreed that the Committee should reform to organise a walk with other activities for 2025, and it is expected to be called together shortly.
