More about the feminist summer school The AGORA, a young feminist summer school that will take place from 3rd to 6th September 2015 in Brussels, Belgium! Why a feminist summer school? The EWL has witnessed a new generation of young feminists rising up, innovating and rebooting the fight for equality! A lot of new organisations, initiatives, and campaigns have been flourishing throughout Europe. A 4th wave on feminism on its way! We see many opportunities to strengthen the connection between these activists across Europe and with EWL itself. Therefore, as a creative way to bridge this gap and hear the voice of young feminists, we decided to organise the first European Feminist Summer School, which will aim to:
- Reconnect and reinforce young European women’s activism
- Set up a creative space for young feminist change agents
- Build solidarity and empower young feminist activists
- Work across borders to amplify feminism in Europe and the feminist network
- Enable the EWL to know more about the interests and needs of young feminists and bring these more into the centre of EWL’s future strategy and actions
- A space to exchange, to inspire, to reinforce the skills.
- The programme will be partly shaped by the participants upstream.
- It will be hybrid between space for the participants and facilitating by the EWL.
- Activities: workshops, skills-sharing, expertise…
