White Ribbon presents a series of fine-art exhibitions in Ukraine as part of their global initiative ‘16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence Towards Women and Girls.’ The three exhibitions feature the renowned artist and human rights activist Alla Horska who was killed in the 1960s by the NKVD, and are presented in partnership with the Stedley Art Foundation. The exhibitions are curated by Daria Borisova and Vlad Tuzov at three separate locations; the Ukrainian parliament, America House Kyiv, and Kuindzhi Museum of Modern Art in the city of
Mariupol.

During the White Ribbon days, the non-profit organization conducts an awareness campaign. The 16 day initiative is supported by the Democracy Fund of the US Embassy in Ukraine.
