HOW TO USE IMPACT STORYTELLING EVENTS TO FAST TRACK A GENDER-EQUITABLE PANDEMIC RECOVERY.
THERE ARE TWO STEPS TO THIS REGISTRATION PROCESS.
Description: The pandemic has exposed vulnerabilities that adversely affect women & girls all over the globe, forcing a shift in priorities and funding across public and private sectors. We MUST find a way to accelerate awareness and action so that we can stop the backsliding of progress made towards the achievement of gender equality.
As part of the 2021 United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) event, the National Federation of Business & Professional Women’s Clubs (NFBPWC) will hold a parallel event on usingimpact activation events to help fast track a gender-equitable pandemic recovery.
With a goal to showcase innovative ways for non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and activists to accelerate awareness and action for this issue, NFBPWC will host two screenings of the award-winning film Pioneers in Skirts – a film where viewers can see their role in the solution, feel hopeful, and are motivated to act.
CSW65 attendees will be able to view the film for one week of on-demand screenings as well as during a March 18 one-hour LIVE Filmmaker Watch Party screening event, followed by an interactive expert panel discussion.
BPW members and their guests, representatives of Member States, UN entities, and ECOSOC-accredited NGOs from all regions of the world are invited!
