Rural Women empowerment



Historically, rural women are powerful, strong and purposeful women who are deprived by the circumstances of abuse, inequality, and lack of opportunities. These challenges have hindered their personal development, economic empowerment, and community leadership.
Rural women make a quarter of the world’s population. 
‘rural women are the invisible mainstay of community resilience and sustainability.’ 
Rural women are key contributors to agricultural production, food security, climate advocacy, enterprise, and citizenship. 
Sadly, the active contribution and the effort of rural women are not recognized and their full potentials underutilized.
When women have empowered they, in turn, contribute to their family’s income and become active change leaders in their communities. 

Mujeres rurales: 

la desigualdad múltiple

La discriminación que relega a las mujeres, se multiplica cuando hablamos de la mujer en los entornos rurales. Digo mujer en singular, porque pese a su diversidad es su condición de mujer, la razón de su discriminación. Y digo en los entornos rurales en plural, porque sean cuales sean las particularidades del mundo rural en el que viven, en todos ellos los indicadores de discriminación se disparan y se agravan, todavía más si la mujer es una persona migrante.
El desequilibrio se expande y se multiplica: tasas de desempleo más altas -por encima del 40%-, brecha salarial por encima de los 400 euros al mes, porcentajes inferiores de presencia en los órganos de decisión y/o responsabilidad, total asunción de las tareas de cuidados que redobla la adhesión al suelo pegajoso, indefensión ante la violencia por la mayor dependencia económica y los menores recursos de intervención, y por encima de todo la invisibilidad de las mujeres en un entorno predominantemente masculino y envejecido.
Es esa invisibilidad, la que obliga a marcar un día en el calendario para abandonar las justificaciones y reconocerlas como víctimas de un sistema patriarcal, para avanzar en el empoderamiento emprendido por las federaciones y entidades de mujeres rurales y acompañarlo de políticas activas que refuercen el trabajo y agilicen las soluciones.
The video shows in practical terms how we use our capital mandate to empower women. We use our capital mandate to unlock public and private finance for the poor. The last few years have seen the articulation of new development agendas that are shaping and reinforcing the importance of this work.

These are some videos that can help us understand the importance of making people aware of the importance of Environmental Education. We won't stop global warming if we don't teach our youths to get involved. Sean Cain discusses an alternative approach to educating our young on environmental responsibility. https://youtu.be/Np0AktXU178 Terry gives a talk on the importance of shifting the focus to children in matters of environmental initiatives in order to encourage a greener culture. https://youtu.be/HWIT7iG6PNY
World Environmental Education Day Date in the current year: January 26, 2022 World Environmental Education DayThe issue of environmental protection and education is so important these days that World Environmental Education Day is celebrated more than once a year. The World Environmental Education Congress (WEEC) holds the observance on October 14, but many other environmental organizations celebrate Environmental Education Day on January 26. The results of all our efforts to keep the environment clean will be short-lived if we don’t pay enough attention to environmental education. Environmental education is a multi-disciplinary field that aims to teach individuals and communities how people can manage behavior and ecosystems to live sustainably. In other words, environmental education is designed to teach us how to live in harmony with nature and reduce human impact on the environment. The modern environmental education movement gained international recognition and significant momentum due to the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment that took place in Stockholm in June 1972. At the 21st plenary meeting of the Conference, the so-called Stockholm Declaration was adopted. The document contained 26 principles concerning the environment and sustainable development. One of the principles was “Environmental education is essential”. The main task of World Environmental Education Day is to emphasize the importance of environmental education as a scientific discipline that pays special attention to the social dimension of environmental problems and focuses on creating the awareness, knowledge, skills and motivation to address, solve and prevent these problems. What is sustainability? In this video we show you what sustainability is, its origin and its importance to try to achieve a global well-being of the present and future generations. https://youtu.be/FbAjxkGvDNs?list=PL4pfpS62ySOU9JoFFw8zqAxzTe1qtlk6a Is it possible to avoid climate change? Climate change is a global challenge that has no borders and to combat it requires coordinated work by all countries. Many people do not know what it really amounts to, either due to unreliable sources or deliberate misinformation, which has led to a series of myths about climate change. In this video we tackle the subject from an objective, scientific viewpoint, discussing the causes and consequences of climate change and how it should be tackled. https://youtu.be/iw2AHyMmGT8?list=PL4pfpS62ySOU9JoFFw8zqAxzTe1qtlk6a NEWS AND STORIES https://www.worldenvironmentday.global/news-and-stories

El documental 'Netejant la terra' d'Anna Girbau.

Anna Girbau i Ferrés es pedagoga y trabaja como profesora en la Universidad de Vic desde hace dieciséis años. Ahora hace un año, cofundó la Asociación ecologista La Vall Verda (@lavallverda), donde personas voluntarias se dedican a limpiar el entorno natural al tiempo que promueven la conciencia ambiental, sobretodo desde la vertiente educativa. Dice: "Con esta voluntad filmé y edité un documental titulado "Netejant la Terra" (Limpiando la Tierra) también en las versiones subtituladas en castellano e inglés. Este documental ha sido presentado en diferentes festivales nacionales e internacionales y ha obtenido una gran repercusión y reconocimiento. Mi idea, pero, es que el cortometraje sea de visionado libre y que a quién le interese lo pueda ver y difundir".
