MTM & Mercy Corp’s Tribute to Women’s History Month
So yesterday was International Women’s Day! To honor the month in which we focus our attention on the trials and accomplishments of women, Samantha at Mercy Corps and I decided we would co-present four of our short films about gender issues that are relevant to the work of Mercy Corps Action Center to End World Hunger.
I will be there to discuss the work of the Media That Matters Film Festival, Mercy Corps staff will offer hands-on opportunities to take action on the issues, and filmmaker Ambika Samarthya will be present early in the evening to discuss the work she is doing for her film Ashray. This event is TONIGHT!
Tonight also marks the launch of the Action Center’s International Women’s Day online campaign, which asks people to write their Congressional representatives and tell them to pass the International Violence Against Women Act by the end of 2009.
Join us!
