Dimitra Newsletter: Women take action

This edition of the Dimitra newsletter focuses on rural women, information and empowerment. Two workshops, organized by our local partners, Amsed in Morocco and Women’s NET in South Africa, take the spotlight. The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) for rural women was on the programmes of both events. In Rabat, Morocco, women members of cooperatives gathered together with government and NGO representatives to discuss and debate how new ICTs could be better exploited to encourage women’s full and active participation at professional, political, and social levels in the country. While at the Johannesburg workshop, participants considered how ICTs can contribute to rural women’s empowerment and good governance in Southern Africa. Rural women’s access to information and to institutions to secure their land rights in Burkina Faso was the subject of a case study commissioned by FAO. In-depth interviews took place with women and men to investigate how land law is implemented in areas where it is at odds with local culture and traditions. A summary of the results of this detailed study is included in this edition.
