24 Hours of Feminist Solidarity - Denmark
In Denmark, a debate will be held on the evening of October 13 with various organisations and politicians focusing on the five values of the Charter. The organisations invited are all committed to either grassroots or professional work on topics concerning or involving these five values. They will tell true-life stories emphasizing life as seen from the perspective of women living under conditions where the intentions of the Charter are neglected. They will also look at the conflicts between their real life situations and the politics of a Danish state, which has signed international treaties, such as CEDAW (Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women) and the Declaration of Human Rights, and yet constantly breaches them. The politicians will be invited to comment on these stories and hopefully make demands to take action with the women present. These demands will be delivered to the parliament on October 17th between noon and 1 p.m. local time.
