Celebrating International Women's Day!

Let's celebrate International Women's Day! The United Nations and people around the world are joining hands to commemorate this day (March 8). Find out more about global activities at the UN Women website.

Here are a few reminders as you continue this week's activities for the "International Women's Health and Human Rights" online class.

1. New Tea Time     A new video for Tea Time with Anne has been uploaded—thank you for your patience! You can find the clip on the Interact portion of the website, as Anne answers questions from three students.

2. This Week's Talkabout Sessions     There's still an opportunity to sign up for a Talkabout Session and discuss the course content live! Discussion guides are all available on the Discussion Toolkit section of the Interact Portal, which you can download in advance.

If you want a Statement of Accomplishment from Stanford University, you must attend three group meetings and submit an individual reflection. As a special treat, alumni from previous IWHHR sessions plan to visit some of the online video chats this week!
