#CALLFORACTION
#AEGEE

Dear AEGEEans who want to make Europe a more equal place to live,

We are sending you this message because tomorrow is a very meaningful date. The 8th of March marks the International Women's Day, and the 8th of March marks as well dozens of years of fight in order to make our society a place where you should not fear and suffer discrimination on the basis of being a woman.

Even though we are now more aware than ever of the inequality faced by women and even though strikes and protest keep happening every year and not only on this date, the fight is far from being over. For this reason, AEGEE-Europe decided to make the one-week awareness campaign #Youth4Equity as well as to write an awareness statement on the International Women's Day. We need you, all locals and members to jump in, because... ☝️

...we need to keep making noise! 📢 How, you ask?

It's really simple. We prepared some resources for all of you to take part as easily as it gets. The only thing you need to do is to make sure that you make a post on your personal social media and that of your local/European Body tomorrow 8th of March, following the next steps:

🔹1. Add the visual we prepared to your post. Feel free to post it on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or any social media you use. 👉 (aegee.blogactiv.eu/files/2020/03/1.jpg)

🔹2. Add the link to our statement. Feel free to quote certain parts in your post 👉 (aegee.blogactiv.eu/2020/03/07/international-womens-day-2020-8th-of-march)

🔹3. Use the hashtags #Youth4Equity and #IWD2020 but feel free to use others such as e.g #GenerationEquality

🔹4. Always tag the AEGEE-Europe social media! (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter)


Additionally, some locals are organising activities in the month of March on the topic of Gender Equality. Here you have some instances on what your local can do:

Take part in the AEGEE campaign #Youth4Equity with the materials that we shared with you both here and in the statement.

Find out how to make your local more gender-friendly in the GENDERS platform, developed by AEGEE-Europe among others.

Organise a workshop or an activity on gender equality. You can contact the Equal Rights Working Group of AEGEE-Europe for guidelines and assistance (erwg@aegee.eu).

Implement gender mainstreaming measures in your antenna. HerMainY is a new project of AEGEE-Europe on gender mainstreaming, and currently its first Training for Trainers is happening, in order to equip a pool of trainers with all the skills and knowledge needed to assist you in making your antenna more gender equal. To know more and get in touch with the trainers, you can Contact the Project Manager Eleonora Ceschin (eleonora.ceschin@aegee.eu).

Organise a fundraiser event and donate the profits to a charity in support of women.


Last but not least, do not forget to join the local protests and strikes from your city for the International Women's Day 2020. A society and a Europe that is truly equal is still far from being a reality, but we do promise you one thing:

Nothing will change if you don't act! 💪

...the Torture Room, where we keep the AEGEE local boards that do not pay their membership fee to AEGEE-Europe
...the Random-Room-Below-the-Terrace, whose existence we ignored until recently
...the Council Room, where the Elders' Council composed by Barış, Hanna, Batuhan, Oksana, Daniël and myself gather to make all sorts of decisions
...or the newly renovated Chillin' Attic, where the Elders' Council members relax after a long day of machination and plotting

Whether you've been in the AEGEE House in the past or not, you are more than welcome to join the tour, as especially in the past year and a half it has changed quite a lot!

See you all tomorrow at 16:00 CET here 👉 meet.google.com/fxz-xbiz-qyd

EPM Barcelona ended more than a month ago, so it is time to start thinking about the European Planning Meeting (EPM) of 2021. By sending this, we invite you to submit topics for the thematic conference of the EPM.

What is the European Planning Meeting?

The European Planning Meeting is a statutory event, taking place once every year. The event consists of a thematic conference and action agenda drafting. The thematic conference of EPM 2021 will last up to 1 day and should support the drafting of the Action Agenda in the second half of the event, thus topics that give background knowledge or another perspective to the focus areas are encouraged.

What can I do?
You can submit EPM topic proposals, either individually or together with others. Anyone can submit topics but you will need to present the topic at the Agora or find someone else to present it for you. Proposals for EPM topics can be submitted by filling in this form. 👇🏼

https://forms.gle/xLWrRgaty3q9xFEw5

The application deadline is Wednesday, 15th of April, 23:59 CET!

Furthermore, we encourage all the topic proposers to consider applying for Content Managers of the EPM in case your topic gets selected, in order to ensure the best possible implementation and the necessary preparatory work for the EPM.

We are looking forward to your discussions and topic submissions!
