Second call-out

 

Are you a girl or young woman under 25 years of age* who identifies as immigrant?

Would you like to share some of your challenges and successes with other girls and young women?

 

Girls Action Foundation needs you! We would like to invite you to share your experiences as an immigrant young woman by contributing to our new Zine.

 

We hope that this Zine will give voice not only to the challenges and issues face by young immigrant women but also allow them to celebrate their successes and achievements. 

 

Sharing your experiences and stories will inspire other girls and young women across the country!

 

What is a zine?

A zine is a small, independant magazine. It can be about any subject that matters to you! Unlike all the popular magazines, a zine allows you to express your own realities with your own words, and share your message with other people.

 

Check out the previous zines we have produced like Thrivin’, Northern Pride and Women’s Power, in the Girls Action Resource Centre under Our Publications: Click here!

 

 

What do I have to do to contribute to this zine?

Call us or send us an e-mail to share your interest in being a contributor to the zine or for any other information. You can submit texts, poems, collages, pictures, comic strips, or choose any medium that you’d like to best share your story. In your e-mail, please tell us what you would like to talk about, language of preference, your age and the medium that you would like to use.

                   

After confirmation of your participation, you have until February 12th 2010 to send us your contribution to the zine.

 

If you are interested in contributing to the zine or for any other information, please contact Karima Kadmiri at karima@girlsactionfoundation.ca or 1.888.948.1112 / 514.948.1112.

If you know of other girls and young women who would be interested in participating in the creation of the zine, please share this invitation with them!

 

*contributions of participants of any age are welcome, but priority will be given to the participants of 25 years of age and under.
