Going to the UN

 
It's that time of year again, when delegates from governments and civil society gather in New York City at the United Nations to discuss the status of women and girls in the world.

This year, I will attending as the Canadian Primate's delegate to the two week long Commission on the Status of Women. I thought I would share with you why it is this work matters to me, and how it connects with my work in the parish at St Philip's.


While I was in Ottawa in early January, I did an interview for the Anglican Diocese of Ottawa's website. They include videos about upcoming events and ongoing ministry in their 'Catch the Buzz' feature.

While I am away at the UN from March 7th-21st, there will be a break in my weekly updates as well as blog entries. But if you are interested you can still get updates from me on my time at the Commission since I will be posting to the IAWN in Canada blog and helping with communications for our delegation.

You can follow happenings at UNCSW through the International Anglican Women's Network blog.
