Taking Action: Priority Issues for 2010-2011
In 2010 we established three priority themes:

  • Ratification of CEDAW by the United States Senate;
  • improvement of access to and utilization of education for girls and women;
  • and raising awareness of the extent and implications of trafficking of women and girls worldwide.

We seek coalitions and other partnerships for conducting education and advocacy.

Program materials online have been written for an individual WG member who wants to “do something” about any or all of these priorities.

To assist members, a template for each of the priority issues was developed with some concrete ideas about something that can be done right where they live.  Each template includes the policy statement, the rationale, objectives, strategies for action at the local and national levels, anticipated outcomes, and helpful resources. >>Priority Issues Templates

I can do right where I live, right now.
