Please RSVP to: [email protected] and let us know if you are staying for the entire day or just a portion of the day, and whether you’ll be with us for lunch. This will help us to prepare. If you are a DfG team and have components to bring, we’re excited about that!
We have separated the day’s activities so that each participant can choose how they engage. The morning session will include religious aspects that will be of interest to some of our community partners. Morning sessions are not an official DfGI event. Any DfG
member is welcome to participate as they feel comfortable. We understand that there will be those who choose to engage only in the DfG-related activities in the afternoon. Whichever sessions you choose, feel free to come for lunch.
Days for Girls is inclusive in every way. We unite from many nations, peoples, generations, backgrounds, and beliefs, and serve people from all places and circumstances. We claim strict neutrality regarding anything that potentially divides us from our shared commitment to advance menstrual equity (ex: abortion, sexual orientation, religious, or non-religious, nationalism, etc). We choose honor and respect and focus on issues that unite us: working together to Turn Periods into Pathways. We remain completely neutral in matters that may possibly prohibit us from reaching all girls, women, and communities.
