In February, we launched a new cycle of our Feminist and Popular Political Education School. This year, our efforts are focused on deepening the training of grassroots women leaders, strengthening their roles as educators and facilitators within their communities.
To guide this process, we structured the year into three core learning modules. Each one addresses a fundamental skill we believe is essential to building strong, transformative educators:
1. Trust – Cultivating self-trust and building meaningful, supportive relationships with others.
2. Active Listening – Developing the ability to listen with empathy, reciprocity, and respect, fostering deeper connections and understanding.
3. Cooperation – Learning to work collectively, supporting one another, and recognizing the diverse strengths that each woman brings to the group.
Each module uses participatory and context-based methodologies that center women’s lived experiences and knowledge.
As part of this year’s activities, in May we supported the Women’s Commission of UDAPT (Union of People Affected by Texaco) in strengthening trust among their members and facilitating collective reflection on the environmental challenges affecting the communities they represent.
Thanks to your generous support, we continue building spaces where women can grow, lead, and create lasting change in their territories.
