Egypt: Empowering women at work and in their unions.

Nawla Darwiche of the New Woman Foundation

Date: Tue 13 September 2011

Nawla Darwiche of the New Woman Foundation (pictured) will speak about women's role in the revolution, and their efforts to organise at work and in their unions, drawing from the Foundations' activism in the agricultural, garment, and health sectors and their work with migrant women.

Terry Hoad, UCU will describe how UK unions can show solidarity with our sisters and brothers in Egypt and Kate Allen, Director of Amnesty UK, will outline the human rights challenges in Egypt, drawing on two recent missions to the country.
