March 8, 2011 - If not now when? Now
return to the world ITALY
Italy is a country for women and we want it to be.
In the year when we celebrate the 150th Unification of Italy, we give more value to 8 March, the day came more than a century ago to honor the workers of the world, became a celebration of women over time and today opportunity for the rebirth of our country. We want an Italy capable
being in the world, in an open and solidarity with all peoples, especially those who struggle for freedom as now those of North Africa.
We want to be on 8 March, as February 13, the day of all.
Of the women who work steadily in and out of home, of those seeking work and do not find it, of workers forced into illegal employment, licenses, precarious, many of which have left their families away to deal with our own, and women into slavery.
In Italy is a widespread insecurity that is not just work but life. It involves a growing number of women and men.
For all you heavy mortgage on the future, but the uncertainty that weighs on young women affects the entire national community and its prospects. In Italy have children, a family, has long since become a luxury. We want for all and all there is the freedom to choose whether and when to become parents.
Why can choose you must:
compulsory maternity leave and maternity allowance. Statutory paternity leave. Rules preventing the dismissal "estimate": no more blank resignations.
By February 13 we said that freedom, dignity and lives of women are the present and the future of the country, and the way they are or are not told in the information and the media is a major national issue. We therefore
that March 8 is also the day when we discuss how the media represent the reality and the profession of journalist.
We believe that the dominant image of women can not be reduced to reflect a stereotypical male desire. We want information that gives respectful and truthful account of how women are helping to build Italy.
If not now when? Now
