Commonwealth Day 2011: Women as Agents of Change

The theme for Commonwealth Day 2011 is "Women as Agents of Change".

Soroptimist International, accredited to the Commonwealth, attended a meeting of Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) at the Commonwealth last week where this exciting theme was announced. The announcement was enthusiastically welcomed by all CSOs present and Margaret Cook, SI International Assistant Programme Director wholeheartedly congratulated the organisers on selecting this theme.

The theme will provide a great opportunity for SI to draw attention to the inspiring work women do in communities and societies in all Commonwealth Nations.

More information is expected to be released at the beginning of December so watch this space for more details about how SI will be getting involved!
