Media projects


Communications and media play an important role in creating women′s networks and in political and cultural education. We subsidize media projects including books (support for printing costs and translations), films and radio projects as well as websites that network women′s initiatives or offer consulting services.


Books


Dade-e-Bidah, femmes politiques emprisonnées 1971 – 1979
A book about imprisoned women in Iran, by Vida Hadjebi Tabrizi. During the Shah′s regime, the author was a student in France and struggled against the Iranian government from there. After returning to Iran, she was imprisoned because of her political activities. Twenty years later, she wrote the first account of the experiences of the women imprisoned under the Shah. The book covers different groups and their experiences of torture, resistance, life in the close confines of the prison cells and their hopes and ideals.


Radio


COFEMO
(Mercedes Olivera y Bustamente feminist collective) A.C. in San Cristóbal de las Casas runs two radio programs: Voces de Mujer and Aquellare, which are broadcast in eleven municipalities in the Mexican state of Chiapas. Both programs create a platform for conveying information by and for women without discrimination and sexism. The goal is to promote women′s rights, combat domestic and sexual violence, and support women′s political participation.

Festivals


Women′s film festival in Minsk
We have helped support various initiatives in Belarus, including symposia and film weeks/film festivals that were launched by various women′s organizations and associations more than twelve years ago in Minsk and its surroundings. The focus of the events is to raise awareness of the creativity, health and social involvement of the women living there. The first women′s film festival invited women directors from all the former Soviet republics. There were encounters between physicians working on Chernobyl, genetic researchers and film directors from the East and the West.
