WHERE - Ngure/Gitaru - Adjacent to Ha Magu Stage

WHEN - Saturday, March 8, 2008 . 10:00AM - 3:00PM

For the third year, members, friends, and allies will gather to celebrate International Women's Day at an event organized by Daughters of Mumbi Global Resource Center. Scheduled to run from 10:00AM - 3:00PM, the celebration will focus on the theme “Celebrate Women, Celebrate Life.”

Participants and speaker will name and tell stories of women who have influenced, inspired, contributed, or otherwise had an impact in their lives. Through reflections, skits, poems, and song, women’s lives, challenges, triumphs, struggles, and realities will be addressed.

Members of the Daughters of Mumbi network will join others around the world in celebrating this important day and take the time to recognize the contributions of women. As Kenyans we also take special note of the challenges facing women in the wake of the post electoral violence which often targeted women because of their gender and vulnerabilities. All – young, old, women, and men - are invited and welcomed.

Karibuni Sana!
