On International Women’s Day, thousands of Women for Women International supporters in 103 cities in 18 countries joined together to call for peace and an end to war. Women in Kosovo, Australia, the US, UK, Nigeria, Congo and Rwanda came together to support women survivors of war. As a close friend and committed supporter of the work of Women for Women International, you are cordially invited to participate in an invitation-only conference call with Zainab Salbi who will update you on the outcome of these events and on the current role of Women for Women International in the Global Women’s Movement. Join us to learn more about how women are making a difference. RSVP: Zeljka Jaysingh at 202-521-9665or ZJaysingh@womenforwomen.org

You've probably heard of the 1994 genocide that took 800,000 lives and witnessed up to 500,000 rapes in only 100 days. You may be less familiar with neighboring DR Congo, where the same roots of conflict have fostered a war more deadly than any since WWII, where hundreds of thousands of women are estimated to have been raped and where the violence wages on today. Yet despite this brutal history of conflict, poverty and loss, it is on the border of these two countries -- Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo -- where less than one month from now thousands of survivors of war, genocide, torture and rape, will gather -- not in mourning, but in unity, determination and celebration.
