Today!

Stand Up for Women Human Rights Defenders!
Demonstration Sunday November 25, 2007

Women On the Move for Burma (WOMB) is organizing a demonstration on behalf of women human rights defenders all over the world, especially those women democracy activists in Burma that are in detention or in hiding. Our demonstration will be one of many in solidarity with the women activists of Burma.

Several of WOMB’s honorees from our Profiles in Courage selections have been arrested as part of the September uprisings. Let us show our support for these brave women!
