Rural Women Beat Extortion thru Local Selftraining
Organization information
CESSEC
Location: Cumbaya, Quito, Ecuador
Summary
Based on our initial nationwide research and training program in 2015-2016, we know that rural women and girls in Ecuador find themselves as intended victims in extortion and coercion situations. Present health/economic emergencies may worsen this threat. Our project now is to assist women and girls to uncover powerful anti-extortion/anti-coercion tools that are hiding in plain sight in their own communities; and to train themselves to successfully and safely navigate those situations.
