It's always about the ability to give back & empower our community especially the voices that are seldom heard
"It's always about the ability to give back & empower our community especially the voices that are seldom heard," said Connect Internet Services Marketing Manager Dwain Qalovaki as he presented the confirmation letters for the "Light Up a Woman's Life for Diwali Campaign" to recepients Pushpa Wati Pratap and Lusi Nawaqadau of Nausori, and members of femLINKPACIFIC's rural women's media network as part of the UNSCR1325 Anniversary event at femLINKPACIFIC on Friday October 30th.
The "Light up a Woman's Life" Campaign emerged from the findings included in femLINKPACIFIC's series of Women, Peace and Human Security (WPHS) reports which the organisation has published this year, and also as a result of meeting women in their homes, on the mat, and in consultations and through the recordings undertaken since the organisation began its women's media initiatives. The reports highlight the lives of ordinary women leading extraordinary lives, and we have become more and more mindful of the struggles of single mothers in our society, the mothers who are the sole breadwinners in their families. This has been a struggle of many generations of women in our own country and for some of us, in our own lives and families.
