The Artemisia Project
A Women's Advocacy Platform
About Us
Based in Montreal, the Artemisia Project is an advocacy platform striving to raise awareness on issues that women around the world face on a daily basis. Through monthly campaigns focusing on a specific matter, we hope to get our readers involved and willing to take action in order to make a difference.
Each month we will present our users with specific missions. Here you will find the breakdown of the topic, specific country profiles, as well as an ecclectic array of multimedia content. As a community we encourage you to share your thoughts, which can be done through opinion pieces, videos or artwork... all with the goal of sparking productive dialogue.
