Why should you attend this event?
Are you fed up with the negative images of Africa especially of women and want to promote a positive view in the diaspora community? Do you want to contribute towards the development of African women and girls but don’t know how?
This afternoon of workshops and panel discussions will explore ideas on how young African Women in the Diaspora can mobilise to take action on gender equality and rights of African girls. It sets out to provide a platform for discussion on policies, issues, challenges and strategies for engagement and action. We will look at the positive and negative images in the media surrounding Africa. We will hear from young inspirational African women and look at what can be done to contribute towards the development of girls and women in Africa and provide the skills and information to be part of creating this collective voice for action.
Who should attend?
Young women from the African Diaspora in UK Youth organisations working with African young women in the Diaspora. While we aim to reach out to young women between 18 to 30 years (including students, researchers and young professionals )interested audiences are welcome to attend.
