International Women's Day - March 8, 2011
Celebrating the 100th anniversary
 
The anniversary is a time to honor the political, economic, and social achievements of women past, present, and future. It also serves as a reminder of inequities that remain and work still to be done.
We'd like to hear from you! Join us in the celebration by telling us how you believe better health can and does change the lives of women and girls in Africa. Please post your thoughts on our Facebook page.

The Mtwara WATSAN project in rural Tanzania
Navikole, like many other villages in the Mtwara district of Tanzania, has no access to clean water or sanitation services. Women and children of the district have to travel on average about four miles to a water source in the dry season to collect drinking water. Click on the link below to experience the joy of a village's first day with access to safe, clean drinking water.
