JASS at the Feminist Forum in Mexico City


JASS and our Mesoamerican allies, Las Petateras, arrived in Mexico City to participate in the 11th Feminist Forum in Mexico City that begins on Monday the 16th of March.  JASS and Las Petateras will conduct various workshops including a Tech Camp where new media web tools will be taught and discussed in relation to movement building and strengthening women's collective power.  Also, the 6th Feminist Transformation Watch will take place beginning on the 17th until the 19th with a space on Feminist International Radio from 1:30 to 2:30 pm local time. Goals for this Watch include documenting and reporting on feminist thought and action during the Feminist Forum as well as providing an open space for discussion and expression.  In conjunction with the radio show, participants in the Watch will have a space to report findings and observations from 6-7 pm during the Forum, as well as publishing reports on the Petateras blog and right here on the JASS blog.  So check back often for updates, photos, and reports from the 11th Feminist Forum in Mexico City!
