A Tele-Circle Sharing Stories from the UN Commission on the Status of Women
Along with several Gather the Women Regional Coordinators, I recently participated in the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women in New York, which focused this year on eliminating and preventing all forms of violence against women and girls. This was a profound experience for us and we’d like to talk with you about it.
You are invited to join Suzan Nolan, Rowdy Brewick (both of South Dakota), Barbara Thorngren (New Hampshire) and Kathe (California) as we share stories and reflections on our experiences at the U.N. And we want to hear your wisdom as we deepen this exploration.
The call will be:
Monday, Mar. 18
9AM PST
Call in number is 712-432-1500
Access code 653823#.
Please join us for this lively and informative conversation.
