On October 17, 2005, women the world over will follow the sun around the earth in an action called 24 hours of feminist solidarity. At noon, in all time zones on the planet, we will take to the streets to show our support for the Women's Global Charter for Humanity and the values therein. http://mmf.lecarrefour.org/solidarity24h/en and http://www.marchemondiale.org/en/charter3.html

You can read our most recent Newsletter to know what women around the world are preparing for the 24 hours of solidarity. http://www.marchemondiale.org/en/bulletin/05_2005.html

From October 17th onwards we will be adding up-to-date information to our News section.  This means that we will be publishing the texts, photos and sound bites that you send relaying information about the activities held.  If you would like the entire world to know the actions you have undertaken, as soon as the action is over, please send your documents and information to the following address 24hrs2005@gmail.com  Thank you in advance, your collaboration is essential for the success of our actions.
