The workshop is part of the EMTe program, which will take place on Friday, October 19, at 7:00 p.m., in the town hall of Potries.

The EMTe program, “Weaving networks among women in rural areas to empower you, start and connect”, is aimed at rural women throughout the “Comunidad Valenciana” with three objectives. The first objective is “Empodera’t”, in which the aim is to sensitize the group of women, training them in empowerment and social economy to mobilize them. “Empréndete”, the second objective, aims to initiate the motivation towards entrepreneurship in rural areas as an opportunity for the future to enter the labor market. Finally, “Connect”, aims to weave a network throughout the Valencian Rural Territory, which allows reaching all women who want to participate in it.

The Federation of Associations of Rural Women of “País Valencià” (Fademur-PV) is a progressive organization that strives to achieve equality and progress for women who live and work in rural areas throughout the Valencian Community.

Through FADEMUR-PV, rural women denounce situations of discrimination and inequality, contributing to improve education and training; and vindicating the recognition of the role that women play in the stability and development of the rural world.
