Dear UWE President and Members,
I have a great pleasure and also I am happy to invite you and all members of UWE for the Annual General Meeting and Conference to Antalya on June 23-27, 2011 on behalf of Turkish Association of University Women.
The theme of the Conference will be ”Women and Poverty in the Concept of Women’s Human Rights”.
While discussing problems and making plans for the advancement of gender equality, we are doing our best to give you the taste of the Turkish cousine and of a wonderful Mediteranean holiday. At the same time you will have a chance to explore the Roman and Greek antique cities which are at the very close periphery of our resort hotel.
Looking forward to see you all at the UWE Conference in Antalya, I send you my best wishes.
Yours Sincerely,
Nazan Moroglu, LLM
President of TAUW
