The Highv, in partnership with Virtueconomy and The Women’s Lab @ the Centre for Social Innovation present:

Women's work, voices and causes have been undervalued for far too long. It's time they receive the acclaim they so richly deserve. This creative challenge is the opportunity for you to channel your wordsmithery, artistry and imaginative genius in honor and celebration of the strong, empowered and kickass women of this world! #femovation

Femovation Inspiration:

THE CREATIVE CHALLENGE IN HONOR OF WOMEN

This challenge calls on you to create 'In Honor of Women'. Whatever that means to you. This can be a celebration of women as a whole, or it can be a tribute to specific women who may have had an exceptional impact on your life (mothers, wives, daughters, sisters etc). Or both. Or neither. You have complete creative liberty to pay homage to the women of this/your world. 

Ovations can be in the form of any medium. But given that the best submissions are going to be combined into an awesome mural on the Women's Lab walls... we recommend you submit something that can be translated into an artwork  (ie we're not quite at painting video or audio on walls... yet). 

THE WALL

The Women's Lab is also subscribing to the development of a wall. But our wall is going to unite, empower and inspire! 

• The best #femovation submissions will be immortalized on the wall of The Women’s Lab, within the Centre for Social Innovation. Herein work gamechanging social enterprises and worldchanging nonprofits that directly benefit women and girls.
• Submissions will be evaluated by the founders from the Women's Lab Community, on their ability to captivate, inspire, empower and/or wow. 
• 10 finalists will be chosen
• These submissions will then be artfully combined into a femovation mural on this big and bare white wall within the Women’s Lab. 
• We will also be publishing the best submissions in our online publication, Virtueconomy email newsletter, through our respective social channels, and across the communications of Virtueconomy partners. At a minimum! There is already interest from local media to do a story on this awesome cause and initiative. Become a part of herstory. #Fempower the world
