A Woman's Manifesto
AIESEC AUC is starting up a new project this year that focuses mainly on the different issues
that are facing Egyptian women in their different societies. Topics such as FGM (Female Genital
Mutiliation), domestic violence, and sexual harassment will be addressed. If you're interested come
and join us as you'll be working with the strongest feminist NGOs in Egypt with a promising
experience.
Please allow me to officially invite you to the first
celebration of international women's day through AIESEC on AUC's new campus on Monday the 8th of March in
Bassily Hall from 6 30 PM to 9 30.
International Women's Day (8 March) is a global day celebrating the economic, political and
social achievements of women past, present and future.

AIESEC AUC is proud to be hosting the celebration of such a significant event on Monday the
8th of March in New Cairo on AUC Campus in Bassily Hall.
Agenda:
The event will first allow speakers from different NGOs to address different issues that
women face in the Egyptian society. Followed is Ms. Mona Arishi the founder of L'EVE Institute (http://lei-egypt.com/) giving a
session about the rich and versified feminine entity by focusing on the three planes and
dimensions; Mind, Body, and Soul.
We will end the event with the play "kolna Laila":
كلنا ليلى
كلنا ليلى هي مبادره ليوم من أجل المرأه المضطهدة في المنطقة العربية. يقوم في هذا اليوم كتاب
المدونات بنشر تدوينات تحت راية يوم كلنا ليلى لطرح ومناقشة المشكلات التي تواجهها المرأة في المجتمعات
العربية. بدأت فكرة كلنا ليلى عن طريق مجموعة من كاتبات المدونات المصريات على رأسهم مدونة لست أدري،
بنت مصرية، شيماء، أرابيسك، أبيتاف وأخريات. وبالرغم من أن بداية كلنا ليلى كانت من مجموعة من المدونات
المصرية فإن القائمين على الإعداد ليوم كلنا ليلى يؤكدون أن يوم ليلى موجه للمرأة العربية عموما وليست
المصرية فقط
مسرحية كلنا ليلى هي مبادرة من الفريق المسرحي بالجزويت المنيا و منظمة
Care International
تحت مشروع سلام و أمان. تهدف المسرحية لتسليط الضوء على العنف المنزلي ضد المرأة
This is an open event for everyone within and outside the AUC community, please feel free to
bring your friends and spread the word.

MAD
The second Project we are running this year is called MaD which stands for Making a
difference. MaD is about increasing the awareness of Egyptian youth on the NGO sector in Egypt by
directly giving them sessions and initiating on-campus campaigns as well as enabling foreigner
interns to work in Egyptian NGOs and share their diverse experience with the rest.
