Dr. Vandana Shiva is coming to Western to speak about women in agriculture, traditional practices, biodiversity, climate change, and much, much more!

Dr. Shiva will be speaking in the PAC at 6:30 on February 25th.
Tickets are $3 with a WWU student ID and $12 for general admission.
(Students- you have to go to the box office or call to get your tickets!)

Who is Dr. Vandana Shiva?
Dr. Shiva works in many different fields of study with many intersectionalities. She is a major figure in the ecofeminist movement with many ties to the environmental movement, working towards justice for women, traditional agriculture, and farm workers' rights. She works to preserve crop biodiversity and advocates for women's equality in global policy, empowering women in agriculture and rural areas. Dr. Shiva is also an anti-globalization activist working towards protecting the resources and well-being of those in need.

Come and learn from this radical woman as she shares her experiences with the Western community.

This event is sponsored by the AS Environmental Center, AS Special Events, AS Social Issues Resource Center, AS Women's Center, the Outback Farm, and the Sustainable Action Fund.
