Elect Her - Panther Women Win

Elect Her–Campus Women Win is the only program in the country that encourages and trains college women to run for student government and future political office. A collaboration between AAUW and Running Start, Elect Her addresses the need to expand the pipeline to women running for office and to diminish the longstanding political leadership gender gap.

The University of Northern Iowa will host its second annual training conference, Elect Her- Panther Women Win, on Saturday, January 23, 2016. The event will be held in the Old Central Ballroom at Maucker Union from 10:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. During the daylong training, participants will garner hands-on campaign skills, hear from inspiring local speakers, discuss research on women in government and participate in breakout sessions. The day will conclude with an opportunity to network with female leaders from various agencies throughout the community as well as within the university. There is no cost for this event, and breakfast and lunch will be served.
