This is a time-sensitive alert to all US WILPFers interested in learning more about International WILPF and / or planning to attend the virtual International WILPF Congress, July 18-21.
In an effort to accommodate different time zones and languages around the world, International WILPF is organizing two nearly identical orientation sessions. In either of these sessions, you’ll learn more about how WILPF International elects the International Board, decides on the International Program for the next three years, and – generally – functions and conducts its Congress. You may attend the virtual orientation session best for you.
Gain Understanding About WILPF International: Register Now for July 2 or July 3!
Accommodate your schedule and language proficiency by choosing one of the two sessions:
Session 1, on Thursday, July 2 – at more reasonable U.S. times – will better serve most of us in the U.S., although that session will be in French. Helpfully, that session offers captions (written translations) in English. However, you can choose the wee-hours Session 2, on Friday, July 3, when the session will be in English (again, with captions available in several other languages).
Session 1, on July 2: 9 am PDT, 10 am MDT, 11 am CDT, noon EDT. Held in French. 👉 Register here
Session 2, on July 3: 1 am PDT, 2 am MDT, 3 am CDT, 4 am EDT. Held in English. 👉 Register here
Plan a “Congress Viewing Party” with Other WILPFers in Your Area
Did you overlook the chance to be able to participate in this triennial International WILPF Congress? If you missed the June 25 registration deadline, perhaps you know someone in your area or branch who did register; many WILPF US members have signed up to be “observers” to attend the July 18-21 Congress and the bonus discussion and education sessions the week before. All registrants will have the opportunity to communicate and connect with WILPF members from around the world!
Branches and other WILPF US members can join a local Congress registrant to host viewing parties for members and friends in the area. Make your plans now to see our U.S. Section delegates and other International delegations at work and to discuss the process and decisions!
