This year on March 8, there won't be any Women's March in Kazakhstan. This doesn't mean we can't speak up. We are conducting Town Hall meeting supported by the PSIR department and student community members. This event is dedicated to crucial topic of the prevention of gender and sexual violence nationally and within NU. It is open for all majors!

Date and Time: Thursday, March 7th at 10:30 AM
Location: Green Hall

This Town Hall meeting will serve as a platform for discussion, education, and action planning in the fight against gender violence. We have invited several speakers to share their insights, research, and strategies for prevention and response to gender violence. Following the presentations, we will open the floor to all attendees to express their opinions, concerns, and suggestions. Feel free to bring your posters!
