Solving Women’s Problems via the Internet
Kenya, Middle East & Latin America
Throughout the world there are women with serious problems or simple questions; others have ideas and need only an opportunity to discuss them openly with women who have knowledge, expertise and the desire to listen and help.
What if Pakistani women could use the Internet in a safe, secure environment to learn about medical issues that they can’t discuss with their male doctor? What if Ugandan jewelry makers could talk directly to women who can market items to people who would pay fair-trade prices? The solutions to these and other problems lie in access to the internet.
PEACE X PEACE (PxP) has created a secure global network of women’s circles that operates by women making connections via today’s digital technology—using high tech to accomplish much-needed relationship-building and communication that literally saves or changes lives. PxP provides real-time translation services and field liaison staff to negotiate cultural barriers. Through PxP’s recruitment and support of ‘circles’ in technologically advanced locations, women grow interpersonally by crossing multi-cultural boundaries. This project can impact the lives of 100,000 each year.
When women can gather, they overcome
depression and isolation.
