International Women’s Day 2023

How are gender issues shaped in society and how do these affect Disabled women?

On March 8th, 2023 ALLFIE made International Women’s Day, a global annual focal point in the women and girls rights movement, with an online zoom event to celebrate the theme #EmbraceEquality.  This is part of our Stronger Voices program to build capacity in the Disabled people’s movement and challenge structural oppression at the intersect of segregated education, poverty, ableism and racism.

Event included guest speakers and a Q&A session.

• Date: Wednesday 8th March 2023
• Time: 11am – 12.30pm
• Where: via Zoom (link will be emailed automatically when you book)
• Access: BSL interpreters and captions

ALLFIE’s Stronger Voices project is asking:

1. What can we do to achieve equity for Disabled women and girls in the mainstream education system?
2. How do we move forwards towards embracing inclusion?
3. What is the reality of trying to achieve mainstream inclusive education?

The event was recorded, will be edited and shared here and on our YouTube channel
