Thanks. I always urge people to investigate carefully all opportunities (even on this site. While we try to be careful we cannot ensure the accuracy or legitimacy of postings. Luckily this conference is not posted on the network)

Fernanda Its a pleasure. There are so many possibilities if you put documentaries and Gender issues together. Some of world's most influential work either emanates from woman or has influenced the gender. Would love to collaborate with you on this. Do you have anything specific in mind ?

Prezada Fernanda,

Obrigado por sua mensagem!

Parabéns por sua paixão pela causa do equilíbrio entre os gêneros e a igualdade de direitos. Também abraço essa questão, como um dos pilares mais importantes da Cultura de Paz - a grande paixão de minha vida!

Espero que possamos "trocar figurinhas" a respeito de nosso trabalho e, quem sabe, construir parcerias!

Abração e feliz 2010!

Hi Fernade,

Thanks for your message. Yes, I worked with refugees/asylum seekers in the UK for several years before joining the public service where I now help to develope projects for vulnerable people especially from minority communityes. I know that women refugees face double disadvantage firstly as refugees and secondly as women.

Hello Fernanda: Thanks for your input regarding my research project on civic action campaigns to fight corruption. I am very interested in learning about any such campaigns that took place in Latin America during the past 20 years or are going on right now. If you know of any citizen mobilisations and civic action campaigns, please let me know. Speaking of Honduras, there was a very good piece in commondreams.org. FYI, here is the link. Best, Shaazka.
