Women Empowerment

“A woman is the full circle. Within her is the power to create, nurture and transform.” ~Diane Mariechild If we think about women, the biggest & most important role she is played in each one of our lives is of a MOM. Many years ago it was easy for moms to stay at home and care for their families. It was notuncommon for a child to enter the house after school and be invited to the wonderful smell of fresh baked cookies or for the husband to come home from work to a set table with dinner about to be served. But today moms are often rushing through the door at the same time that their children and husbands are and dinners are often ordered out or prepared quickly at home. With this changing role of moms and addition of new dimensions to motherhood, it is imperative to inspire creativity, awareness and action on vital global issues of women which includes maternal health, female feticide and women empowerment- increasing the spiritual, political, social or economic strength of women. IMOW (International Museum of Women) is an innovative online museum that showcases art, stories and ideas to celebrate, inspire and advance the lives of women around the world. Recently, IMOW is pleased to announce the launch of its latest Online Exhibit, “MAMA : Motherhood Around the Globe ” The rare and inspiring photographs in this exhibit depict women, in many eras, who have demonstrated curiosity about the larger world and remarkable resourcefulness in their ability to navigate in it. These adventurous women have, through their daring, transformed the notion of female identity and the popular perception of acceptable female roles. They have broken through the limitations of social convention to explore and conquer new realms—geographic, physical, mental, and metaphoric. While the importance of mothers figure remains the same throughout history and cultures, the experiences of mothers from one generation to the next has shifted drastically as cultures and societies have evolved. The exhibition aims to turn inspiration into action, helping fuel a worldwide movement of advocates for mothers' human rights and advances in maternal health.
