FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The National Association of Women and the Law is conducting a series of Feminist Law Reform (FLR) Workshops across the country from 2022-2023.
The goal of the Feminist Law Reform Workshop series is to bring NAWL’s FLR 101 course, which is an open-access online course, to life! Because everyone, from law students, social justice advocates, activists, and grassroots organizations, should have the opportunity to engage in feminist law reform to advance substantive equality rights for all women.
At each workshop, NAWL and its partners are inviting the public, journalists, respective parliamentarians, and feminist organizations to take a deep dive into feminist law reform. Workshop invitees will include local feminist activists and other members of each respective local law reform communities.
Topics addressed in the workshops include feminist law reform through an intersectional lens: who to influence and how, what is feminist law reform and how to get involved, as well as how to effectively apply important advocacy tools like briefs, petitions and op-eds.
