I walk for equality - Hodam za ravnopravnost (14.11.2013.)
ENGLISH VERSION BELLOW :) Kako bi pomogla cilj u koji vjerujem, organiziram svoju akciju/izazov "Hodam za neravnopravnost". 14.11.2013.hodam rutu: START: 9.30h ČAKOVEC (barake, Aleksandra Schulteissa 19) – 10.30h ŠENKOVEC (Knjižnica i čitaonica Šenkovec predavanje u 10.30 "Kako volontiranjem unaprijediti lokalnu zajednicu?" 11.30h krećem kroz MIHOVLJAN – ČAKOVEC (na zaobilaznicu prema Goričanu), - ŠTEFANEC – 14.40h OREHOVICA (Osnovna škola Orehovica, predavanje). POGLEDAJTE MOJ VIDEO: http://youtu.be/fLI0hJTZZWI Cilj mi je prikupiti 3000 kuna do svoje akcije u korist kampanje udruge Zora "Kreatori promjena". Zašto hodam? Izabrala sam hodanje iz više razloga. U obiteljima gdje oba partnera rade, a imaju samo 1 obiteljski automobil, žene najčešće nisu te koje ga voze, već češće koriste bicikl ili autobus. U to se možete uvjeriti ako se radnim danom zaputite do tvrtki u kojima većinom rade muškarci (na parkiralištu su većinom auti), te do tvrtki gdje većinom rade žene (štenderi su puni bicikala). Nekad, kad su bicikli bili rijetkost i imali su ih tek najbogatiji, na selu su ih opet vozili većinom muškarci, dok su žene hodale, i to najčešće bose jer nije bilo cipela.(svjedočenja moje obitelji (bake i njenih sestara) o svom životu prije 60-85 godina). Dodatno, motivacija mi je bila činjenica kako žene u nekim djelovima svijeta dnevno moraju hodati oko 4 sati kako bi prikupile vodu, koja najčešće nije ni pitka. Tijekom tog prikupljanja, često postaju i žrtve nasilja i silovanja. To vrijeme mogle bi provoditi u školi kako bi imale šansu promijeniti svoj život, kao i živote svoje obitelji. No, najčešće tu priliku nikada ne dobe. Zato ja hodam za ravnopravnost. Pogledajte moj video i priključite se! BUDITE I VI KREATORI/CE PROMJENA! - doniraj! - hodaj sa mnom za ravopravnosr! - osmisli svoju akciju u korist udruge Zora na Givengain.org Hvala od <3 ***************************************** Hereby I introduce my activist project “I Walk for Equality”that will be 14th November, in support and contribution to the Change Makers Campaign of NGO Dawn. PLEASE CHECK MY VIDEO: http://gigaf.org/1a4UEpa November 14th I will walk at least 20 kilometers a day in Međimurje County in Croatia. 14.11.2013. my walking for equality: START: 9.30h ČAKOVEC (A.Schulteissa 19) – 10.30h ŠENKOVEC (Village library Šenkovec, lecture 10.30 "How to improve our local community trough volunteer actions?"- 11.30h toward MIHOVLJAN – ČAKOVEC (on the road toward Goričan), - ŠTEFANEC – 14.40h OREHOVICA (welcoming in Primary school Osnovna škola Orehovica, lecture). I will make three stops in rural villages on the way, where I will meet with Rural Women Associations. During these stopovers I will conduct lectures on gender equality, find volunteers to empower Associations to increase their impact in the community, and encourage activism in local communities. So I am going to walk, educate and empower at the same time. But why walking? Women here often don't drive family cars. Instead, they go to work by bike or by bus. In the past, when Croatians just started using bicycles, it was mostly men who were using them, while most women were still walking long distances. Women who are victims of domestic violence are often sent to “walk” from institution to institution without being given the information they need. Moreover, I know that in many parts of the world women have to walk for long hours every day to collect water that is often not clean, and during these unbearable walks they often become victims of violence and rape… The time spent walking could have been spent in school and it could change their lives. But these women lack opportunities and equality in their lives. My goal is to raise 3.000 KN (395 euros) for the Change Makers Campaign for the educational programs of NGO Dawn that change people's lives.
