Celebrating International Women’s Day 2018!
It is International Women’s Day! The WILL Empower team celebrates women who are leading local, national and global movements to fight injustice, to create better opportunities, and to make the world safer for women and girls. WILL Empower is currently accepting applications for the Innovative Women’s Fellowship program and we invite you to learn more about the program and how to apply on the willempower.org website.
Also, there are emerging and veteran programs and resources available for women in the labor movement and we wanted to lift up a few of them. United Association for Labor Educators (UALE) will host annual women’s summer schools in regions throughout the nation, School for Women in Labor and Worker Organizations. Finally, Ana Polanco wrote an opinion piece entitled “#MeToo, #TakeaKnee, #TimesUp: Impediments to Opportunities for Solidarity and Member Engagement,” this is definitely worth reading.
