Thunder Bay Organizations Unite for Moose Hide Campaign Walk to End Violence
Thunder Bay, ON – Community organizations, leaders, youth, Elders, and residents will come together on Thursday, May 14 for the Thunder Bay Moose Hide Campaign Walk to End Violence, a growing community-led event focused on raising awareness about gender-based violence (GBV) and intimate partner violence (IPV).
The Moose Hide Campaign is a national, Indigenous-led movement that began in British Columbia in 2011 and has since grown across Canada. The campaign calls on men and boys, alongside women and communities, to take responsibility for ending violence against women and children. Participants wear a small square of moose hide as a visible commitment to honour, respect, and protect women and children and to speak out against violence.
Now entering its fourth year in Thunder Bay, the local walk has expanded significantly and now includes 10 partner organizations working collectively to address violence in the community. The event brings together Indigenous and non-Indigenous organizations and community members in a shared commitment to awareness, healing, accountability, and action.
Walk Details:
• Gather at Lakehead University Agora – 11:30 AM
• Walk begins – 12:00 PM
• Stop at 1077 Golf Links Road – 12:15 PM
• Arrive at Confederation College – 12:45 PM
• Guest speakers – 1:00 PM
This year’s event will include drumming, guest speakers,, community participation, and opportunities to learn more about the Moose Hide Campaign .
Community members are encouraged to attend, wear a Moose Hide pin, and walk in solidarity.
