Open Mic to Commemorate the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
The 25th of November is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. Although the elimination of violence against women, unfortunately, remains a dream, we will continue fighting towards that end.
One of the activities we are organising to mark the day is an open mic with the theme – There’s Power in her Words – on Friday, 26th November at Maori Club in Valletta, starting at 8.00 p.m.
We invite women to come and share their powerful words with us on the day to help us raise awareness about this and other issues which women are still facing in this patriarchal society. Women may read their own words or the words of others, they may read poetry, parts from a book, short stories or even sing. Reading and singing in any language are welcome. There’s Power in Her Words

Hemm is-Saħħa fi Kliemha – Palk Ħieles 
Il-25 ta’ Novembru huwa l-Jum Internazzjonali għall-Eliminazzjoni tal-Vjolenza fuq in-Nisa. Għalkemm li ma jkunx hawn iktar vjolenza fuq in-nisa għadha ħolma, aħna nibqgħu nissieltu għal dan l-għan.
Waħda mill-attivitajiet le se norganizzaw biex infakkru dan il-jum huwa palk ħieles bit-tema – Hemm is-Saħħa fi Kliemha – nhar il-Ġimgħa, 26 ta’ Novembru, il-Maori Bar, il-Belt, li jibda fit-8.00 ta’ filgħaxija.
Nistiednu lin-nisa biex dakinhar jiġu jaqsmu magħna s-saħħa ta’ kliemhom biex inkomplu noħolqu kuxjenza dwar din il-problema u oħrajn li n-nisa għadhom iħabbtu wiċċhom magħhom f’din is-soċjetà patrijarkali li ngħixu fiha. In-nisa jistgħu jaqraw kliemhom stess jew kliem ħaddieħor, jistgħu jaqraw poeżiji, siltiet minn xi ktieb, stejjer qosra jew anki jkantaw. Għall-qari u l-kant tista’ tintuża kwalunkwe lingwa. Hemm is-Saħħa fi Kliemha
