First Unitarian Congregation Of Ottawa

The Canadian Unitarian and Universalist Women's Association (CUUWA) invites all Canadian congregations to celebrate International Women's Day. Our guest speaker, Ketty Nivyabandi mobilized women to protest against her country's goverment. Burundi, leading her to flee from persecution to Canada. As a refugee, Ketty continues to be a voice for peace and rule of law in her country and regularly speaks on human rights, refugee issues, and the intimate effects of conflict on women’s lives globally. She works with the Advocacy and Media team at the Nobel Women’s Initiative. She will share her own story with us this Sunday.
