Our Website Has Changed

04-04-2006

Dear friends,

We have changed our web site to include all of the elements that the World March of Women has published to date.

The information on our 2005 world actions (the sections on the Relay of the Women's Global Charter for Humanity, the Charter in different languages, the Solidarity Quilt squares, the 24 Hours of Feminist Solidarity action, the Solidarity Blog and Writers’ Comments on the Charter) are now found in OUR ACTIONS/2005.

 The list of countries/territories and participating groups of the World March that were formerly visible from the first page of our site, with 5 folders (Africa, Americas, Asia/Oceania, Middle East/Arab World) are now found, in the same format, in the STRUCTURE section.

The audio files have been grouped together with photos and video material under the heading “Multimedia”.
