Thursday night, One.org along with other partner organizations hosted a showing of the documentary A Powerful Noise in 450 theaters across the nation. Following the film was a panel discussion about it that featured many people prominent in the women’s rights, social entrepreneurship, and global healthcare fields. The movie featured three women who are empowering other women in their communities for social change.
The experience was inspiring for me and Salud del Sol, as it reaffirmed the pertinence of the issues that our organization hopes to address. Themes such as appropriate development, the fight against infectious diseases, and women’s empowerment are all encompassed within our mission and objectives, and I am so glad to know that these themes are receiving such national and international attention and respect.
