When We Are Bold: Women Who Turn Our Upsidedown World Right will launch at the Ottawa International Writers Festival on September 27, 2016. Join authors Aja Monet, Casey Camp-Horinek and Madeleine Thien to celebrate this work and participate in an evening of fascinating conversation with Nobel Peace Prize laureates Jody Williams (USA) and Tawakkol Karman (Yemen). 

The launch will use the 28 essays in the book as a starting point for a conversation on the big and small ways women build peace in their communities, how feminism shapes so many women’s thinking about peace and how supporting women is the key to solving the world’s current outstanding conflicts.
