Asian Woman Festival 2021
Event Information
About this Event
At Asian Woman Festival, we're in the job of empowering South Asian women and underrepresented genders to be activists of their own future. We do this through using culture, conversation and art to smash stereotypes and stigmas South Asian women and underrepresented genders are often judged by.
Everyone is welcome to attend, you don't have to identify as a woman or South Asian to attend. We encourage our allies to listen, watch, and deepen their understanding through our festival and content.

Online Festival Information
Throughout this past year, we have been pushed the message time and time again that self-care is the key to helping us navigate these rocky times. However, for South Asian women and underrepresented genders, this can be more difficult to put into practice, especially when we have a history of putting others before ourselves and giving out all our energy, leaving nothing for ourselves. The AWF team began to notice that these expectations were negatively impacting us on an even bigger scale as the pandemic escalated.
We are a team made up of many women that come from all walks of life including students, mothers and entrepreneurs, with some losing their jobs and some moving countries during this period, but one thing we all have in common is knowing how difficult it can be to make time for ourselves. That's why we have decided that this year's Asian Woman Festival will focus on helping South Asian women and underrepresented genders understand the power of putting yourself first.
Through our amazing speakers and workshop leaders, we'll give you the tools to work on self-compassion, help you appreciate the value of making yourself a priority and the event itself will allow you to carve out some precious time for yourself.
