JOIN ME ON THE BRIDGE OF PEACE & HOPE!

 

International Women’s Day, Monday 8th March 2010 @ 6PM at Merchant’s Bridge in MANCHESTER

 

Since 1993, Women for Women International has empowered over 243,000 women survivors of war to move towards economic self-sufficiency by providing financial and emotional support, jobs and business skills training and rights and leadership education. 


More and more studies show that investment in women is the key to sustainable development: stronger women build stronger nations.  With adequate access to information and resources, women can lead change towards peaceful and stable societies.

 

This year on International Women’s Day, 8th March, we will launch our first global Join Me on the Bridge campaign to amplify the voices of women in conflict and to promote their unique potential for building bridges of lasting peace and security.

 

There will be Join Me on the Bridge campaigns in Congo, Rwanda, Bosnia, Kosovo, Sudan and cities all across the UK, the USA and the world – together we will raise a global call for peace!

 

Where: Merchants Bridge, Manchester, M3 4RU (near Albert's Shed, Barca and Dukes 92).

Nearest Metro stop: G-Mex

Nearest train station: Deansgate
