Urgent notice!!! Short notice change of venue for the 3rd World Grassroots Women’s Conference in September 2022 in Tunis.

To the participants of the 3rd World Conference of Grassroots Women in September 2022 in Tunis. Unfortunately we have to inform you that the World Women’s Conference cannot take place in the University of Manouba.

Contrary to previous firm commitments and good cooperation, the management of the university has completely unexpectedly withdrawn its commitment.

BUT: The World Women’s Conference will certainly take place in Tunis! Our friends in the Tunisian preparatory committee have already identified two possible alternatives. More will be visited later this week.

The new venue will be announced early next week (starting 8/15) via the homepage.

Attention, unfortunately the students dormitory is also no longer available to us. Currently, the Tunisian preparatory committee is working hard to find affordable alternatives. We will inform you as soon as possible.

Furthermore, we advise all participants who have made a reservation in Manouba to cancel it and to look for accommodation in Tunis. The Tunisian preparatory committee is also looking for more accommodation.

„Women of the world scaled the highest mountains – standing together in tougher times!
Manouba or elsewhere – Tunis we come!“

World Coordinators of the World Women´s Conference of grassroots women call for participation, initiation and activities on the Hiroshima Memorial Day 06.08.2022

01.08.22

Let’s make this day a day of struggle for world peace!

World Women demand: No second Hiroshima! No second Nagasaki!
Destruction of all nuclear, biological and chemical weapons!

Hiroshima reminds: on 06.08.1945 the imperialist USA threw the first atomic bomb and destroyed at one blow about 250.000 people. Until today the radiation affects man and nature. Worldwide, imperialist governments are actively preparing for the possibility of a nuclear third world war. In 2022, there are about 12,700 nuclear weapons in nine countries worldwide. The U.S. and Russia are the two largest nuclear powers in the world.
World women, together with the workers-‚, peoples‘, indigenous and youth movements, are building a front across national and continental borders against imperialist warmongering with the threat of nuclear contamination and destruction of people and nature!

We stand up and say NO! No nuclear war!
We demand from all nuclear powers the obligation never to carry out a nuclear first strike.

Answers from Continental Coordinators:

Chères collègues,
Sans hésiter je réponds favorablement à cet appel pour la journée d’Hiroshima contre la guerre nucléaire !
Nous devons éviter à notre Monde déjà croupissant sous les effets néfastes antérieures
des précédentes guerres d’en subir une autre car nulle n’en serait épargné !!
Marie -Paula

Translation:

Dear colleagues,
Without hesitation I respond favourably to this call for the Hiroshima Day against nuclear war! We must prevent our World, already languishing under the previous harmful effects of previous wars, from suffering another one because none would be spared!

Guideline for country reports for the preparation of continental reports for the General Assembly at the 3rd World Conference of Grassroots Women

Info for delegations to the 3rd World Conference of Grassroots Women

Dear women, as delegates of your country you represent the women’s movement at the General Assembly of the 3rd World Women’s Conference of Grassroots Women. The General Assembly is the decision-making body of the World Conference on Women, it is composed of the elected delegates and the global coordinators. There is 1 delegation per country, which has five votes, regardless of its actual size. The General Assembly discusses core issues of women’s situation and struggles and decides on its outcomes according to a consensus principle. An essential basis of the discussion are your country reports which are summarized into continental reports by the continental coordinators.

1. Brief presentation of the country, the situation of the mass of women, their working and living conditions, size and scope of the women’s movement
z. E.g. Is there industry? Agriculture? Do the women work full time, part time, informal sector? What is the social situation of the mass of women? How big is the women’s movement and what political currents does it include?

2. What are the struggles of the women’s movement, as well as other struggles, and what are their demands?

3. The form of the reports
the reports should be max. 2 pages long; it would be nice if you send us 2-3 photos in addition. We would like to make the continental reports with your pictures as Powerpoint – presentation.

4. Deadline for the country reports
