Global Call to Participate
Today marks the beginning of the 56th Session on the UN-Commission on the Status of Women.
Last year I had the great honor and pleasure to attend this annual conference with four other authors of now multimedia book Get Your Woman On!
Most notably, Dr Jean Shinoda Bolen, a long time activist and advocate for a UN sponsored 5th World Conference on Women since the last conference in 1995 held in Beijing.
As I am unable to attend this year, I extend Dr Jean’s invitation to: “Women of all spiritual traditions to join in prayer and silence, to hold in their hearts the hopes of those who come to the CSW: for homes and a world without violence and fear, where there will be good food, air and water, education and medical care, for women’s empowerment and gender equality, for consciousness, voice and choice, for circles with a sacred center to support the wisdom and courage of women in them, and for there to be a UN 5th World Conference on Women.”
Please share and sign the petition.
