Feminist Expo 2000 seeks to unite and strengthen the global women's movement on the principles of the economic, political, and social empowerment of women and girls. The Expo is an international women's empowerment conference that will showcase the power of the feminist movement, its ideas and vision for the 21st Century, as well as the diversity of its work, constituencies, and accomplishments. Moreover, the Expo seeks to ignite the worldwide women's movement on the cutting edge issues of our time - Working for women's political, economic, and social equality and empowerment Stopping the threat and spread of anti-feminist fundamentalism Fighting to end female genital mutilation Abolishing the trafficking of women and girls Promoting a feminist perspective on global budgets and trade policies Preparing for the Beijing Plus Five Conference Constructing campaigns to protect and promote the human rights of women Ensuring reproductive health rights for women and girls Realizing UN platforms for action from Beijing, Cairo and Vienna Advancing women in politics Increasing access to education for women and girls Countering the backlash which threatens the rights of women and their children, lesbians and gay men, indigenous persons, and people of color. The Feminist Majority Foundation believes that the struggle for women's equality can only be achieved with a unified force of power to show the world's governments and media that there is a universal momentum for women's rights. Feminist Expo 2000 seeks to capture this momentum by highlighting the core issues of the women's movement from every region of the globe. The Expo will also show the world and the opponents of women's human rights and equality that the women's movement is not dead but stronger than ever before! Feminist Expo 2000 will not be complete without the participation and sponsorship of feminists and women's advocacy organizations from across the globe. Please join us for this historic event! |
