Gather
the Women
6
Congresses on 6 Continents Launching in 2006
5WWC is more than
just a petition. It is a living collaboration of women and organizations
carrying an intention into action. One of those actions is 6 Congresses
on 6 Continents.
What might be
possible if the grassroots women and organizations of the world were able
to work together, to share resources and to exchange ideas? Circles
of women in
various regions are already at work to explore the answer to that question by
creating 6 Gather the Women Congresses over the next two years.
