International Women’s Day 2011

In celebration of the 100th anniversary of International Women’s Day, we are aiming to get at least 100 members of English PEN to send a postcard, email or letter to one of our female cases of concern. Please take a couple of minutes to write a brief note to one or more of these brave women.

Below you will find the details of five current cases of concern. Please email cat@englishpen.org to let us know who you would like to write to and we will send you their address.

Please remember to include a return address and, if possible, please send us a copy for our records.

Thanks so much for your support, and Happy Women’s Day!
