2018 20,000 STRONG Women's Empowerment Rally

2018 20,000 STRONG Women's Empowerment Rally | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

This year's 20,000 Strong Women's Empowerment Rally was superb, and the speakers all did amazing jobs.  Lots of pictures.

 

Our pictures from the event.

 

"20,000 STRONG is the largest, sustained movement In Belize geared towards empowering and celebrating women. It is a renewal of the commitment to women by women. It is a movement with the mission to ignite change in our society; change in how we think about women, change in how we feel about women, change in how we treat women and change in how women see themselves.

 

20,000 STRONG is a movement that showcases the many roles women play in society; a reminder that 50% of the population cannot be ignored. And so we stand together and we march together! We march in solidarity with each other and our sisters around the world. We march to uplift each other. We march as a show of unity."

"Special thanks to all the WOMEN OF BELIZE who came out and made the 20,000 STRONG Women's Empowerment Rally a success!  Thanks to all the businesses that supported by coming out as a group or giving your female employees the time to come out!  Thanks to all the volunteers and persons who worked behind the scenes both on the day of and the days leading up to the rally!  Thanks to those who couldn't make it out but wore your orange shirts in solidarity!  I hope you will stay with us for the rest of this journey toward a truly equal Belize!  The real work begins now.  Thank you all once again!"
