Stratford Circus Upfront East and Newham Sixth Form College present International Women’s Week 2010. If you’re looking to celebrate International Women’s Week then look no further than Stratford Circus.

This March Stratford Circus calls on daughters, mothers and grandmothers to join artist Monica Ross in a group recitation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

We want generations of women to unite at Stratford Circus and share in this unique experience by reciting together, remembering what they can, in any language.

This joint participation event is about the necessity to speak up in a time when our shared human rights must continue to be at the forefront of our minds.

To take part email info@stratford-circus.com
