Free Free, a decentralized organization that works for the physical, emotional and financial freedom of women through initiatives that accelerate gender equity, inclusion and social transformation, will hold a special week of lectures, debates and workshops in São Paulo to commemorate the your four year birthday. Between August 22nd and 25th, the impact ecosystem, founded and led by Yasmine McDougall Sterea, will address topics such as sexual, emotional and patrimonial violence.
The first event will be a workshop, held on Monday, the 22nd, at the Casa da Mulher Brasileira, which welcomes women in situations of vulnerability or who have been victims of domestic violence. It will be led by Yasmine, with the aim of helping to improve the self-esteem of these women, who will then have access to the Free Free educational cycles.
On the same day, the founder of the Institute and platform will also meet with students from the Centro Universitário Belas Artes de São Paulo to give a lecture with the aim of preventing abuse and encouraging the union of women. The initiative is part of an educational program for universities that Free Free is preparing and will launch soon.
On the 24th, in partnership with the Public Ministry, the Free Free Summit 2022 will take place at JK Iguatemi to discuss solutions to combat violence, with female leaders from different areas. Mediated by Yasmine and Prosecutor Dr. Valéria Scarance, the idea of the event is to outline strategies for this new moment of resumption after the pandemic. There will be three panels that will address: sexual violence and the objectification of the woman’s body, with Joice Berth and Karla Felmanas; emotional health, with Jacque Conrad and Renata Gomide; and patrimonial violence, with Carolina Andraus and Marina Kaufman.
To end the week, on the 25th, there will be a meeting between Yasmine and Dr. Gabriela Mansur, President of the Instituto Justiça de Saia, to discuss actions that contribute to the freedom of women. She tells:
“I created Free Free in honor of my mother, who took her own life, and my daughter. I created Free Free to be the support, inspiration and solution my mother didn’t have. I am thrilled that we are where we are today. Much more than a platform and an Institute, we have become a movement that crosses borders through an ecosystem that, every day, frees girls and women from the myth of the perfect woman, from abuse and what holds them in the golden cage. Being here today only gives me more courage to move forward, seeking more and more new solutions to free us all. There’s a lot of good things to come this year.”
