I thought this was an interesting article to bring awareness to another group of people. For the last couple of weeks every article that I have read always bring attention to Africa , Asia, or India. I wanted to know if there were any other female gender issues in the world besides these particular countries. The International Womens Club will hold a conference in Moscow to discuses certain issues. This will be the first organization of this type ever held in Russia. The club wants to address issues such as women today, women in health care, culture, and education. By bringing in these type of broad topics they will raise the issues of family care, career choices, trafficking of women, and racial interlorence.
I want to follow this article as it progresses to see the outcome of these situations and how will it be handled by the group. Hopefully, with a few articles to discuses problem in Russia, I will be able to compare and contrast the different countries. I want to find out if they view their women the same and how they plan on helping them succeeding. I will keep you posted on any information that I find dealing with this article. Please comment on this article of what you think the outcome will be for the groups and how you think the countries will compare.
