Women's visit news

Very pleased that the new women's visit 'A Day in My Life' is now being prepared and will happen soon!

The women from Palestine have been chosen and they are preparing their visa applications.

The women from London are meeting every Thursday evening to plan for the visit.

It will be called 'A Day in My Life' and we expect to have some animated film at the end of it ... Wait and see!

Soon there will be a private facebook group for the people taking part, and a special public  blog for the visit itself.

Looking forward to meeting some new friends from Palestine very soon :)

Remember the women's website!

This was made from work last year, and we will add to it this year...

Planning visit for the women's visit 2013

Dates have been set for the women's visit from Palestine to Britain, 14th to 24th March.

Applications are being taken in Palestine from women interested in joining the project in Britain, and in Britain we are taking applications from people who will like to be 'buddies.'  

We are working on the programme, and today we visited a possible residential place for the three residential days at the beginning of the programme. The idea is that both British and Palestinian women will stay here together and organise a British day and a Palestinian day (so their friends can learn about their country) as well as see the local area. 

What do you think of this?  (photos below)

The idea is that then,  everyone will come back to London for lots of activities, visits, and work on animated film. There will be an event for International Women's Day on Saturday 23rd March 

- What are you doing in Abu Dis about International Women's Day?

Tomorrow Thursday we are having the second women's links committee specifically on the project and we hope that some of the potential buddies will come - We'll be in touch with you all after that!

Best wishes for now

Another Palestinian women's visit to London in 2013

Just one picture of many many from last year's Palestinian women's visit to Britain... You can see more about it here pwv2012.blogspot.co.uk  It's great to see how many people who were in that exchange are still in touch with each other and with CADFA :)

CADFA have heard that we are likely to be able to run another project like this so now is time to encourage women in Abu Dis and London to start planning and preparing to take part....
