» Culture Kitchen
Culture Kitchen March 2010 is a free, one-day event brought to you by Women’s Environmental Network and Zacchaeus Project. This year we’re highlighting the need to give women a voice on climate change. Research has found that women are disproportionately affected by climate change, yet due to lack of women in policy-making positions, women are are not fully represented when it comes to making big decisions about climate change mitigation. WEN aims to strengthen women’s voices, both in the community and on a national scale.
