Grounding in Power

The Barn Youth and Community Centre: 37 Abbotsford Place, Glasgow G5 9QS
Booking required. Book here
Join us as part of our International Womens’ Day celebrations in this workshop designed to ground you in power!
Facilitator Teresa Banos will lead us through a combination of reflective and experiential activities to explore the following:
- What is confidence?
- How do I feel when I feel confident?
- What are the sources of my confidence?
The goal is to leave the session with a greater understanding of what confidence looks like for you. We will plan how we can draw on our confidence in moments when we need it most, particularly when campaigning or when standing up for our rights.
This event is part of ‘Our Rights, Our Communities’, a partnership project with Govanhill Baths Community Trust, Unity Sisters and Milk Café Glasgow.
Judgements and Expectations
The Barn Youth and Community Centre: 37 Abbotsford Place, Glasgow G5 9QS
5:30pm – 7:30pm
Closed event
Following the feminist tradition of consciousness-raising groups, a discussion about the judgments and expectations that women face in everyday life will help to bring up personal stories and see how they are similar.
These parallels will aid in the identification of “collective” challenges and gender inequalities, reiterating that “personal is political.” The participation of women from various generations and social/cultural backgrounds in this discussion aims to break down generational and cultural barriers.
Film projection
Thursday 10th March, 6:30pm – 7pm
Milk Cafe – 452 Victoria Rd, Govanhill, Glasgow G42 8YU
We will be screening short films made by the Unity Sisters on our shop window, for all passersby to enjoy!
Unity Sisters is a self-organised support group for asylum-seeking women, refugees and their children. They are a group of women who have all experienced the process of going through the immigration system, and whose main focus is to support women who’ve shared those same experiences.
