Film & Panel Discussion: The Day Iceland Stood Still

October 24, 1975 - 90% of the women of Iceland walked off the job and out of their homes one fall morning in 1975, refusing to work, cook, or take care of the children. They brought their country to a standstill and catapulted Iceland to the “best place in the world to be a woman” today. The USA, in contrast, is ranked 43rd in the world by the Global Gender Gap study. What do we need to do to improve our standing? After the film screening, a panel of organizational leaders will share their ideas and there will be time for discussion and brainstorming.
