New material on Stopping child and forced marriage

The district board decided last autumn that the theme for the spring activities should be Stopping child and forced marriage and gave the committee for influence and supporting efforts the task of designing these. Stop Child Marriage (The Global Program to End Child Marriage) is Zonta's signature project and we need to increase our knowledge of the project and how the situation is both internationally and in our country. The impact committee has now produced a Powerpoint presentation that the clubs can use at a club meeting. The presentation is also available with recorded speech. So the clubs can choose to either watch the presentation and speak themselves or choose to watch it with a recorded speech. The presentation takes about 30-35 minutes.

Presentation and film can be found on the page Stop Child Marriage - Zonta District 21 (login required).

Sincerely

Carina Maxson
Chair of the Committee on Impact and Supportive Actions, 2022–2024
