White Ribbon UK Launches ‘Voices for Change’ Series
White Ribbon UK are excited to launch a brand new series, Voices for Change, bringing conversations which tackle big topics with brilliant speakers, straight to your sofa.
The series will feature internationally recognised speakers, authors, researchers, and campaigners exploring big topics in a way that is both engaging and accessible, with a strong focus on audience participation.
Voices for Change kicks off on 24th July with none other than Jackson Katz, author of Every Man and a pioneer in the movement to prevent gender-based violence. Katz will be chatting with White Ribbon UK CEO, Lynne Elliot, for a straight-talking conversation about his book, why men can’t stay on the sidelines, and what real allyship in preventing violence against women and girls looks like.
Tickets for the series debut with Jackson Katz are available now, with audience members encouraged to submit their own questions ahead of the event for a truly interactive experience. The best question will receive a copy of Jackson’s new book, Every Man. Click here to grab your tickets!
Next in the line up in the Voices for Change series is Dr Michael Flood, one of the world’s leading researchers on how to effectively engage men and boys in the prevention of violence against women. Flood’s work shines a spotlight on promoting gender equality, making him a crucial voice in the conversation about creating lasting social change. Tickets will be available soon, keep an eye out via our socials, your inbox and on our new events page.
Later in the year, we’re excited to welcome Jack Urwin, author of Man Up. Jack brings a unique mix of comedy and heartfelt insight to discussions about masculinity today, breaking down stereotypes and encouraging men to rethink what it means to ‘man up’ in modern society.
Plus, we’ve got plenty more amazing guests lined up and ready to join the conversation. Stay tuned for further announcements as the series continues to grow and amplify voices dedicated to ending violence against women and girls. See you there!
