CHAPTER ACTIVITY: The Ragdoll Project

The Ragdoll Project is now accepting paper dolls for an installation project. Our dolls were recently in CA (National Steinbeck Center in Salinas) and the Inquirer Building (Philadelphia's MCGOPA Gallery) on the Ragdoll Tour for Human Trafficking Awareness. We were also featured as part of the Philly DoGooder Awards for the film we previewed at the 2012 National Conference in Los Angeles. Other WCA chapters are hosting the dolls and are creating their own human trafficking awareness projects. (ongoing)

CHAPTER ACTIVITY: Gender Games Exhibition

Inspired by Penn’s “Year of Games”, International Women’s Day 2012 at International House Philly highlighted the interdisciplinary landscape of women’s health and the challenges to achieving justice. The concurrent panel included health practitioners, policy advocates, and educators working toward justice in women’s health. Dr Felicity Paxton, Penn Women’s Center Director and Lecturer in the Annenberg School of communication, moderated the panel, interweaving the theme of games in a discussion with attendees. The art and performances featured artists who express the need for justice in women’s health. Co-presented by African Studies Center, South Asia Center, Center for South Asian Studies, Middle East Center, Penn Women’s Center, Penn Consortium of Undergraduate Women and Excelano at the University of Pennsylvania, and United Nations Association, Women’s Caucus for Art, Women’s Campaign International, The Anna Crusis Women’s Choir, Usiloquy, Tune Up, Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom.
