KICKACTION.CA HAS RELAUNCHED
As you may have noticed, kickaction.ca has a whole new look! Months of work have been put into updating it to be an efficient and appealing site for young women to connect.
It's a place where you can post blogs on issues that are important to you, whether that is pop culture, the environment, social justice or anything else you want to talk about! It's a place to speak your mind and connect with other young women from across the country.
ANSWER THIS !
Facebook, blogs and twitter, no doubt about it, we live in a super-connected world. However, young women are making the web their own and creating girl-only online spaces to connect, be healthy and speak up!
kickaction.ca is teaming up with the BC Centre of Excellence for Women's Health to find out how young women are using the web and we want to hear from YOU!
As a young woman, what do you get out of participating in all-girl online spaces, like Kickaction?
How do you think Kickaction could improve to be a better tool for young women?

BLOGGER PROFILE: SEILA
Meet Seila, she's a nineteen year old feminist, vegan, liberal arts major, born in Bosnia and living in Montreal. Her interests include, blogging, coffee-drinking, reading critiques and commentary of media and society, and dreaming of the day that her apartment will be big enough to accommodate a pet cat.
Here is an excerpt from her first blog post:
"I was born in North Western Bosnia to Bosnian-Muslim parents during the height of the Yugoslav War. This blog will document my thoughts and feelings as I reacquaint myself with this history and culture, and, specifically, how I reinterpret my place in my immigrant community and in my home country in light of the feminist ideas I've discovered."
