On Tuesday, June 25 in NYC, join V-Day and The 11th Hour Project as we discuss City of Joy, a revolutionary community for women survivors of gender violence in Bukavu, DRC, and V-World, a sustainable farm where women will turn their pain to power to planting.

This special conversation will feature Christine Schuler Deschryver (Director, City of Joy and V-Day Congo), Eve Ensler (Founder, V-Day and Tony Award winning Playwright), and Wendy Schmidt (Founder, The 11th Hour Project), moderated by V-Day Board Member and Paley Center CEO Pat Mitchell. The evening will include an introduction by V-Day Board Member and The 11th Hour Project President Amy Rao and a reading by V-Day Board Member Thandie Newton.
