2010 West African Women & Water Training Program from Unseen Pictures on Vimeo.


This video is a great example of how women are in so many ways being overly depended on, put at a disadvantage, and expected too much from, and also what can happen when they are given the chance to learn how to do things like treat water, which will help their communities in many ways. This Water Training Program teaches women how to create and manage water treatment structures, as well as many other things.  As a speaker in the video points out, "this is just the beginning." and that "this knowledge will ripple out in 30 more ripples, because we have 30 more women who are just overflowing with new knowledge they can share with their communities."
