About this event
Do you want to advance social justice in your community but don’t know where to start? Are you planning a rally for gender equity and looking for tools to make it impactful? Join us at our Organizing and Advocacy Day of Action to participate in workshops, discussions and panels on how to energize your community and use social media to foster positive change at the grassroots level! We will discuss strategies for organizing with limited resources and learn how to build a network of activists.
Did you know that, according to UN Women, only 22 world leaders are women, 119 countries have never been led by a woman and only 25% of national parliament representatives are women? Empowering women and girls in advocacy, leadership, and organizing is necessary to ensure that governments and activist movements become and remain intersectional around the world.
So what are you waiting for? Register today! Organizing and Advocacy Day of Action will run from 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM EST in an interactive, virtual format. The event content is mostly geared toward leaders ages 13-22. This event will be hosted in English with closed captioning translation services in English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese. You will receive information on how to join the Girl Up Leadership Summit: Organizing and Advocacy Day of Action in a reminder email we will send out prior to the session on July 14th from 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM EST.
