ADES, with help from organizing bodies in Santa Marta and y La Maraña, continue supporting the development of women leaders in rural communities.

In this workshop, which is part of a training series on gender, women learned how to make their own sanitary napkins, as a way to care for the environment.

The women shared that it is important to strengthen their relationship with the environment in a more positive way, since it is they who will be directly affected if it is destroyed.
