Programmes across India and the world on International Women's Day
8th March 2010

Today is International Women's Day 2010
We at Women of India have decided to kick off "The Year of the Woman".
The Year of the Indian Woman Worldwide.

We want to move away from the constant barrage of negative topics when it comes to women in India. Not that we believe that these issues like dowry, domestic violence, trafficking, discrimination etc that afflict women are unimportant, but because we believe that concurrently there is a need to spend as much energy on being proactive and taking some positive action to change the little worlds in which we live and operate.

Share with us your ideas and little steps that you are taking or planning to take to make Women of India a power that makes us proud.

We want to map the women of India resource worldwide: online and in person.
We need to get to know each other and meet whenever possible.
We need to believe that each one of us can make a difference.

Our themes for this year are:
Digital Literacy
Financial Literacy
Legal Literacy
Visual and Media Literacy

We are planning workshops on these topics in our community and at our work places.
We are creating "Do-it-yourself" tool kits for women's programmes that we will share so that you can do the same and more in your community!

This is our community lets make it come alive!
