Fourth International Women of the Mountains ConferenceOrem, Utah, USA
From: 07.10.2015 to: 09.10.2015The Fourth International Women of the Mountains (IWM) conference is being co-organized by Utah Valley University (UVU) and the International University of Kyrgyzstan (IUK) to promote sustainable development in mountain areas worldwide. For the first time, the Utah International Mountain Forum (UIMF), a coalition of student clubs at UVU will host this high level forum. It will address the critical issues women and children living in mountainous regions face across the globe and provide a forum to discuss gender equality.
This conference will continue the tradition established with the previous International Women of the Mountains Conferences held in Orem, Utah, in 2007 and 2011 and in Puno, Peru, in 2012 to strengthen the involvement of North American mountain communities with the Mountain Partnership (MP). |
