Meeting and Networking - the key to success
Meeting of migrant women from the Czech Republic, Germany and Ireland provided an opportunity to be inspired, to learn what has worked in other countries and other organizations, and what they could use in their own organizations.
"This meeting gave me new inspiration and lots of positive energy."
"During our discussions, I heard many similar issues that we are able to solve together."
"I realized that women are the same all over the world and are full of strength."
Such comments were heard during the evaluation of the meeting of migrant women from the Czech Republic, Germany and Ireland,
which was held on 25th and 26th February 2011 in Prague. The meeting was organized by EKS
in cooperation with the German association Maisha
and the Irish organization AkiDwa
within the Networking Migrant Women project.
The meeting provided an opportunity for migrant women to be inspired, to learn what has worked in other countries and other organizations, and what they could use in their own organizations. As one of the participants noted "networking is the start of success". As a part of the project, another meeting of migrant women will be held this June in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
