After serving on the board of the Vancouver Women’s Health Collective for three years, I decided it was time to step down and make room for new voices. Being part of this 45 year old organization has been a privilege and I will continue to support it and encourage you to do the same. My farewell blog entry is posted here. Merci à mes collègues et bonne chance au nouveau conseil d’administration!
This invited blog entry was posted by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) on Monday, August 22nd as a result of my participation as a WIEGO resource person for Asia-Pacific Social Protection Week earlier the same month. The full text is available here. Salamat Po for the warm welcome back to Manila after many years away! (Photo above of beedie rolling courtesy of Marlese von Broembsen)
Thanks to Professor Malinda Smith of the University of Alberta for inviting me to contribute to the AlbertaPoliBlog. I’m happy the entry came out last week inspired by my recent trip to India for WIEGO. And thanks to the Honourable Jocelynne Annette Scutt for her “concrete canopy” metaphor, which I have referenced.
