Raise your Woice - International Women's FestivalArtistic Director
Jan. 2015 - Jun. 2016Istanbul, Turchia‘Raise your Woice’ - A festival and project highlighting the journey of women’s rights worldwide, from problems to solutions. ‘Raise your Woice’ is not just a festival. It is a project. It is a campaign. It is a mission. But, it is only the beginning. ‘Raise your Woice’ seeks to amplify the voices of all Women by promoting their free expression, thereby giving voice to the struggle for civil, economic, political and gender rights worldwide. We believe in the potential of empowering Women’s Voices, we believe in taking serious actions, promoting those who are already doing a great job, like NGOs, entities, leaders, artists and activists, collaborating with them and creating the right network and environment through further awareness in order to have a real Impact. We want to give more Voice to Turkish Women, especially guiding the youth with the right self confidence to achieve great things in their lives. We want to highlight a woman’s stance against harassment, against violence and against oppression. We seek prevention. We seek a future that does not mirror our past. We believe in the importance of empowering women in society and of respecting their rights as human beings. This world can be a better place. Let’s raise our ‘Woice’.
