Details

One June 13th, the day after the festival launches with Necessary Targets, a panel of extraordinary women activists from conflict zones (including Afghanistan, Bosnia, Burma, Cambodia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon, New Orleans, Rwanda, Sudan, Saudi Arabia) will take up the issues of the play and launch V-Day's 2007 Spotlight Campaign: Women in Conflict Zones. By combining the session of international activists with a celebrity performance of Necessary Targets and a city-wide festival, V-Day will ensure a high profile event that delivers exposure to women's leadership in conflict zones. The national and international panelists are individuals who have experienced the pain of war and the trauma that follows in a conflict zone and have fought for justice. They provide leadership for peacemaking and ending violence against women in their own countries.
