Monthly Meeting of the CSW NGO Committee
Presentation of Gender Based Violence and Climate Change
In recognition of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women on 25 November, this Monthly Meeting, co-sponsored by the NGO Committee on Ageing, will be tackling the intersection of gender-based violence and climate change.
The program will include a rapid-fire session in which members of our Executive Committee and office staff will ask the speakers a round of questions on gender-based violence and climate change. The meeting will conclude with a ten-minute centering practice guided by Exhale to Inhale, a trauma-informed yoga organization.
