Groups
Women Self-Empowerment
This group is called "I Am My Sister" which is for women's empowerment because "empowerment" is the leading idea and the "red thread" that goes through all the modules, and reflects our core vision of change. We want to address women's lives which are in many ways experiences of dis-empowerment, with gender-based disrespect or inequality being one of its strongest and most painful expressions. During this process, we will learn the challenge to convert complex concepts such as "gender" and "awareness" into useful tools for the women, by developing and transforming to fit the cultural contexts where many women live.

I Am My Sister
Current estimates from around the world suggest that as many as one in every three women has experienced some form of disrespect related to their gender identity. Gender identity disrespect has often come from someone she knows, such as her husband or another male family member or even male members within the society in which the woman lives. It takes various forms, all of which reflect and reinforce the lack of equality women face in society no matter how old they are, to which class or culture they belong, or what income they have.
