Plan International’s All Girls Standing Strong

Plan International's All Girls Standing Strong is a global strategy aimed at empowering 200 million girls by 2027 through gender-transformative programs, youth engagement, humanitarian support, and advocacy. It seeks to challenge harmful gender norms, amplify girls' voices, and shift decision-making power to local communities. By focusing on education, leadership, and resilience, the initiative builds on past successes to create a more equitable world where all girls can learn, lead, decide, and thrive.

Featured ArtS:

Women’s Caucus for Art - Layers of Our Story Art Exhibit

Sponsored by the Women’s Caucus for Art, Colorado Chapter (WCACO) and the Photography Program at Colorado University Denver, Layers of Our Story Art Exhibit reflects how there are so many ways that artists use photography to make art. The evolving nature of visual storytelling may include intimate details of your life, the invention of scenes or narratives, examining cultural contexts, evaluating social media and internet saturation, to name a few. The exhibit showcases storytelling through visual means. By revealing layers of meaning within the photograph, the artist’s image demonstrates our human need to connect. Both culture and very personal details weave together and layer the meaning of the work.

Featured Publication:

The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together by Heather McGhee

Heather McGhee’s specialty is the American economy—and the mystery of why it so often fails the American public. From the financial crisis of 2008 to rising student debt to collapsing public infrastructure, she found a root problem: racism in our politics and policymaking. But not just in the most obvious indignities for people of color. Racism has costs for white people, too. It is the common denominator of our most vexing public problems, the core dysfunction of our democracy and constitutive of the spiritual and moral crises that grip us all. But how did this happen? And is there a way out? McGhee reviews these questions and their application for race issues.
