[Air-L] Introducing Hey Girl Global

[Terri Senft]

Dear AoIRistas:

I am writing to let you know about Hey Girl Global, an international
network of teachers, students and creatives, interested in tracking the
intersections of urban, media and girl/women’s cultures.

HGG is launching two initiatives and would love your input.

*HEY GIRL GLOBAL MAGAZINE*


The first is Girl Global Magazine, an online publication slated to launch
Fall 2016. *Right now, we're looking for writers, editors, photographers,
videographers, graphic designers, translators, and social media/outreach
people, and we'd love for as many of you to be involved as possible.*

If you could circulate our Call for Creatives among your networks, we’d be
hella grateful

link will take you to a PDF you can feel free to print or forward.

interest to our membership. OF COURSE we will be covering FemTechNet!
Conference
