SUMMARY:Reproductive Justice without Borders
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for an important conversation! We’ll give you more details later – are you ready! \n\nAcross the Americas\, reproductive justice movements are built not just through protests or policy win but through the everyday\, behind-the-scenes labor of organizers\, researchers\, and communities working across borders. \n\nIn Latin America\, this work is rooted in decades of transnational feminist dialogue. VITAL is documenting those strategies—so that we can learn from each other\, strengthen our movements\, and build justice that lasts. \n\nWe will have simultaneous interpretation in English and Spanish. \nAttend here!

SUMMARY:Reshaping the World of Work for Women
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 has strained global health systems beyond capacity\, and the economic fallout has been far-reaching: job losses\, wage cuts\, small businesses closing their doors\, and the added burden to social safety networks and government programs. \nIn crises like the coronavirus\, women are often the first to drop out of paid work and the last to join back. Their experiences are compounded by fewer employment opportunities\, disruptions in childcare\, an increased burden of unpaid care for the ill and elderly\, an uptick in gender-based violence\, and increased competition for resources. \nThe systemic inequities highlighted by the pandemic shed light on the many barriers women face in the world of work. New and innovative recovery efforts are required to address these inequities and set women up for success. \nDuring this second event in ICRW’s 45th anniversary series\, we will be joined by speakers from across regions who bring unique perspectives on work in South Asia and East Africa and aim to build a new foundation of support for women in both paid and unpaid work. \nThese conversations will help us look more closely at the barriers that women perpetually face—leaving them on the periphery—and how we can together tackle these challenges to build toward more inclusive and resilient economies. \nClick here to register.
