How Women Can Change the World (and How Men Can Help)

How Women Can Change the World

On Wednesday March 10, 2010, One Just World brought together over 500 people to explore How Women Can Change the World. International Women’s Day comes at an important time this year as, with only five years to go until 2015, there is still an enormous amount to do to reach the Millennium Development Goal of gender equality and empowering women.

Hilary Charlesworth AM (internationally renowned commentator on international law and human rights) and Dr Helen Szoke (Commissioner, Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission) joined Jane Sloane (Executive Director of IWDA) at this forum, with the fabulous entertainment by Kavisha Mazella, Kankelay and the Women’s Circus.

Two or three things I know for sure

Two or three things I know for sure

The snowy streets of New York feel faraway from the summer warmth of Australia and yet the buzz and energy of so many women, and smaller numbers of men, descending on New York from all quarters of the globe creates its own fire.

The occasion is the 54th session of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, the annual two week long event where government and non government representatives from around the world gather to discuss progress on gender equality and on initiatives that advance this cause.

Newsletter 78: Women’s Economic Empowerment - Autumn 2010

Newsletter 78: Women’s economic empowerment

In this newsletter, you’ll read stories of women from Fiji, Timor-Leste and the Solomon Islands who are working to change and to improve the situation within their communities. We outline how we are helping our partners to support women in starting business, building their skills and developing a better livelihood security, especially in rural and vulnerable areas.

The articles highlight women’s ability to be activists for social change and the positive effect this can have on their families and communities. We enjoy being able to share something of this with you.
