When it comes to conferences, college, conventions and festivals, there are often a number of activities. In some cases, this includes feminist workshops. For example, there are a number of colleges and universities which host Feminist Theory Workshops on an annual basis.
In some cases, conferences, conventions, festivals and rallies also highlight issues related to women. One of the most common those doing so are LGBTQ+ pride parade rallies. Whereas, recent marches and rallies for equal rights always host a number of feminist speakers and workshops.
Recently, individuals and companies have been providing these workshops either on-site or at a conference center. Two companies offering these workshops are Soapbox and Ambivalently Yours, both of which are woman owned and operated. As such, the focus of workshops provided tend to lean toward feminism and feminist theory.
Beyond workshops, camps focusing on these issues have also become popular over the last several years. For, women often enjoy being able to relax and enjoy the company of others of like-mind and talents. As such, these camps are now being offered in different areas throughout the year.
It should be noted that camps are very different from other events. For, individuals can often converse about a number of different ideologies and interests. As this is the case, there are women of all backgrounds, lifestyles, political persuasions and sexual orientations. As such, it is important that those attending these events maintain an open mind.
In addition to learning about the history and work of others, the camp also provides the opportunity for all in attendance to examine and get to know oneself better. In the process, many have not only gained insight into the personal and political view one holds but have also discovered new talents and interests. As these events are open to all women, regardless of lifestyle, political party, race, religion, sexual orientation or political persuasion, it is important those planning to attend have an open mind, for while political discussions often become heated, emotional abuse and violence are never appropriate, and will not be tolerated, regardless of differences in these areas.
At most camps, popular feminists offer keynote speeches which can often inspire and motivate women to become involved in the movement. Whether creating art, working for a non-profit or volunteering time, all are important areas in which women can become involved. In addition, for those whom have the ability to do so, working on a rape crisis hotline, or at a shelter are areas in which there is often a high demand for paid staff and volunteers.
Women sharing the same type of interests often make fast friends at these events. In many cases, these individuals will at some point work together to overcome challenges and obstacles important to women. When this is the case, there is a very good chance the friendships made at these events might very well last a lifetime.
