SUMMARY:Global Experts Discuss Peace\, Power\, and Prosperity for Women and Girls
DESCRIPTION:The Women’s Fund of Western Massachusetts and Berkshire Community College are celebrating 25 years since the Fourth World Conference on Women held in Beijing by the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women. This event became the impetus for the founding of The Women’s Fund of Western Massachusetts (WFWM).\nOn Friday\, September 11th we invite you to join this virtual event featuring a conversation with Dr. Silke Staab\, Research Specialist at UN Women\, Dr. Valerie M. Hudson\, Author\, Professor\, and expert on national security policy and gender\, and Dr. Kathleen Szegda\, Director of Community Research and Evaluation at the Public Health Institute of Western MA. These prominent experts will speak to the progress toward peace\, power\, and prosperity for women\, girls\, and thus for communities.\nThe afternoon will begin with an address from Women’s Fund CEO\, Donna Haghighat with an introduction to our global experts to follow. Like the women who attended the Beijing conference\, we will then turn our perspectives from global to local to discuss the status of women and girls in Western Massachusetts before ending the event with a live Q&A.

SUMMARY:Amplify! Your Nonprofit Storytelling through Data
DESCRIPTION:The Women’s Fund of Western Massachusetts (WFWM) surveyed women and girl-serving organizations across all of Western MA to identify their capacity-building needs. The WFWM is collaborating with expert trainers to offer capacity-building workshops focused on the needs of organizations serving women and girls.\nJoin The Connecticut Data Collaborative for a Data Storytelling Workshop. Data stories can be a powerful tool to communicate data in a clear and compelling way that can lead to action. Yet too often the data we convey leaves our audience wondering what they should do or with more questions than answers. In this workshop you will learn what a data story is\, a process to create clear and compelling stories\, and how to combine your insights with a visualization that will guide your audience to action.
