EASSI now covers the whole world!

This is a new day for us. The start of our own blog. A whole new space. We are truly getting bigger.

EASSI is a sub-regional organization in Eastern Africa that follows up on Government commitments to women concerns. EASSI began in 1996 after the fourth world conference on women ion Beijing. Since then, other commitments have been followed like MDGs and CEDAW.

We are a network in the eight countries of Burundi, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Somalia, Rwanda and Uganda. We are pretty big. But now that we are blogging, our space has become even bigger. We cover the whole world.

We welcome you into our space to learn and share as we all grope with the struggles of existence, of life, of meaning and of trying to meet with the difficulty of attaining more opportunities for women.

    This is a very good start. We welcome all our focal points, members and partners to this space to share experiences and obtain ideas for replication in their own projects.

    Dear All,

    i am in the field of documentaries, and had read about the call to produce
    a project with the idea, the subject for a documentary of SALW . Any news from that side, ?

    I would like to see an online museum of not only dangerous weapons, but also of landmines which are a different category, but equally dangerous. . . .

    Kind regards,
    Riccardo

    Dear Riccardo,

    thanks for visiting our space. we have contracted a firm called film africa to do the dopcumentary and they are right now in moroto and they have already visited other places of refugees and camps.

    i like the idea of a museum of landmines . We are producing a whole lot of work on peace and conflict and today we will take this on as a possible area to go into. an onlinemuseum.

    Regards,
