from running for office and threatening democracy around the world. Hear
first-hand from courageous U.S. and international leaders who are fighting
back to help women overcome the threat of violence and become politically
active. The Forum will discuss ways to stop, as well as report, violent
acts against women in politics. Please join us to learn how women from
around the world are becoming change-makers in the face of backlash in the
form of violence.
