I am reaching out to share that next year our section will be resuming our UN Practicum in Advocacy and Local to Global program after a gap of two years due to the pandemic. Start making contacts and identifying possible nominees now to participate in this unique experience!
This opportunity is to attend a practicum in advocacy at the United Nations Commission during the first week of the Status of Women (CSW) meetings. This year our CSW practicum dates will be March 6-10, 2023; the NGO CSW Forum will run through March 17.
The practicum is offered by WILPF as we have a consultative status with the UN Economic and Social Council. It is open to all undergraduate and graduate students currently enrolled in a university, college, junior college or technical college in the United States. The deadline for students to apply is January 6, 2023.
