Women Empowerment: A Long Way to Go
Women Empowerment and Gender Equality is still a distant dream for women in many parts of the world.
CIT Senior Mediator, Nathalie Al-Zyoud, was selected to participate in a year-long course related to interreligious dialogue, coexistence and pluralism attended by religious leaders from around the world.
In all, 23 fellows from 4 continents, 17 different countries and from 7 different religious affiliations participated.
Organized by the King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz International Centre for Interreligious and Intercultural Dialogue (KAICIID), this integrated learning process provides Fellows with an initial framework to facilitate subsequent trainings and programming within their home institutions. The Fellows will also develop and implement small-scale local and international projects during the course of the program. There will also be opportunities to organize and attend dialogues, lectures, field visits and conferences.
