"Say No to Violence Towards Women"
Currently in Ireland, one in every eight pregnant women will suffer from some form of domestic abuse; we join forces with Women's Aid to create awareness during the event programme.
We are also launching our new Initiative 'Africa Caribbean Diaspora Men's Forum' to celebrate the men in our life, the impact of men in society, and working with positive men, helping to promote a positive image for African men, youth and boys.
"The mission is to help our community thrive economically, ecologically, educationally and culturally, advancing their knowledge within the society we live".
We will be using the funding provided for the venues, the artists who will appear at the film festival, coverage of the event in all locations, supporting the volunteers, transport, banners, flyers, promotion, photography, refreshments at the 5 locations, materials and administration costs for the specialists who will be providing the workshops.
