Our 2010 Action
Under the slogan “Women on the March Until We are all Free!”, the Third International Action will be organized around two prominent moments:
- The first one from 8th – 18th March, with regional marches of different types, forms, colours, and rhythms that will also mark the 100-year anniversary of the Declaration of International Women’s Day, called by delegates of the 2nd International Conference of Socialist Women in Copenhaguen, in 1910;
- Simultaneous marches and actions in the countries will mark the second moment, from 7 to 17th October, with an international meeting point in Sud Kivu, Democratic Republic of the Congo, as a way to express international solidarity with women leaving in conflict situation and to strengthen women’s protagonism in the resolution of conflicts. This action in Sud Kivu will close the WMW Third International Action.
In addition to these two big moments, actions in regional level, putting together women from different countries from the same continent, will be organized in Asia/Oceania (from 12-14th May, in Philippines), Europe (in 30th June, in Turkey) and the Americas (from 16th-23rd August, in Colombia).
In each country, mobilization is prepared around demands and commitments in the four action areas of the WMW:
- Common good and public services
- Peace and demilitarization
- Women’s work (for women’s economic autonomy)
- Violence against women
