Show, by your actions, that you choose peace over war, freedom over oppression, voice over silence, service over self-interest, respect over advantage, cooperation over competition, action over passivity, diversity over uniformity, and justice over all.

Subject: Call for Participation -- International Women's Day Festival


The Women's Center is currently looking for participants for its 3rd annual INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY FESTIVAL, to be held on March 13th ..

The festival will honor the 2011 IWD theme of "Equal Access to Education, Training and Science and Technology:  Pathway to Decent Work for Women," and celebrate the past, present, and future accomplishments of women worldwide.  This is a wonderful opportunity for members of the campus community to highlight women's and girl's achievements, to reflect on women's status today, and imagine women's future.

We encourage all members of our community - U.S. and international, students, faculty staff, and community and family members - to participate in this event.

You can contribute to the Festival in the following ways:
*          Poetry (could be your own or someone else's)
*          Performance (impersonation of famous women from a region or country, dramatic readings of texts relevant to women, songs, fashion shows, exerpts from plays, novels, etc.)
*          Dance (ethnic or modern)
*          Readings (in English and other languages)
*          Presentations on women's culture, politics, and history
*          Speeches
*          Tabling for student, national and international organizations
*          Vending
*          Artwork
*          Your own unique contribution, such as research, field work
*          Volunteer to be part of the organizing committee, or help out during the Festival
*          We will hold an International Women's Fashion Show, If you would like to model clothes (traditional or contemporary), please contact Kara:  kk147810 at ohio.edu for details
