How to Support the Dialogues

Our sponsors make it all possible...

President Barack Obama, still campaigning in October of 2008, responded to our inquiry of all candidates:  What would you do to promote CEDAW, the Equal Rights Amendment, and the advancement of women?”

Read President Obama’s letter, pledging his support for the advancement of women...

“If not us,  ...who?

If not now,  ...when?”

How Dialogues Begin: World Cafe

The World Cafe is a powerful form...

The March 8 celebration of International Women’s Day brings a special event to Seneca Falls. Jointly sponsored by WILL and the Women’s Interfaith Institute, an afternoon program entitled, “Reaching for the Sky - and the Stars” will feature Dr. Judith Pipher, Astronomer and National Women’s Hall of Fame Inductee, in a dialogue with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, protrayed by Dr. Melinda Grube.

The event will take place at 4:00 pm, at the Women’s Rights National Historical Park, located on Fall Street in Seneca Falls.

By all accounts, the 2012 Seneca Falls Dialogues event was a tremendous success, attracting students, women’s studies professors and researchers, and interested women and men who made the pilgrimage to historic Seneca Falls.

On the weekend of October 19-21, 2012, Seneca Falls, the Upstate New York community known as the birthplace of women’s rights, buzzed with activity. Organizers are currently soliciting remembrances and follow up stories from attendees.  If you have a story to share, contact Adriene Emmo using this website’s contact page, and let her know your interest in submitting.
