ONE BILLION RISING - February 14
Posting Date(s)
On Thursday, February 14, UPEI will join ONE BILLION RISING—the
global activist movement to end violence against women and girls. The
campus community is invited to dance together to support the movement.
Where: McMillan Hall, W.A. Murphy Student Centre
When: 12:15–1:00 pm
ONE BILLION RISING began as a call to action based on the staggering
statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during
her lifetime. With the world population at 7 billion, this adds up to more
than one billion women and girls. One billion women and those who love them
will walk out, dance, rise up, and demand an end to this violence. Learn
more at www.onebillionrising.org.
In celebration of Valentine's Day and the ONE BILLION RISING movement the
Student Alumni Association will be providing a hot chocolate bar during the
event.
