Forest Defense Womens' Action Camp

by mfd (mfd [at] mazamaforestdefense.org)
Mazama Forest Defense recognizes the connection between all oppression and violence against the Earth and its inhabitants, including the marginalization of women. To address patriarchy inside and outside of the movement, MFD is organizing a womens' action camp this spring.
Womens' Action Camp
April 10-24, 2003
Klamath-Siskiyou/south Cascadia bioregion, specific location TBA

Mazama Forest Defense recognizes the connection between all oppression and violence against the Earth and its inhabitants, including the marginalization of women. To address patriarchy inside and outside of the movement, MFD is organizing a womens' action camp this spring. The action camp will focus on substantially increasing womens' forest defense skills and knowledge as well as provide a forum and safe space for us to discuss and take action against patriarchy. All women interested in forest defense, feminism or any other social justice issues are welcome.

We encourage women to attend as long as possible. However, since two weeks is a long time, keep your eyes and ears open for a detailed schedule so that you may attend for the specific workshops that catch your interest.

If you have a skill you would like to share, or an issue you would like to see addressed, please contact MFD at mfd [at] mazamaforestdefense.org

Workshops will include
Primitive skills, Natural health and birth control, Herbal medicine, Wilderness survival, Climb training & ropes, Non-violence, Plant ID walks, Domestic violence/sexual assault, Self-defense and so much more.
