Celebrating The International Girl Child Day Like any other person, the Girl Child is defined by a combination of different traits and qualities. Here are the characteristics of the Girl Child: 🎯 Identity: A woman's sense of self, which includes her morals, principles, and unique self. 🎯 Life experiences: She is shaped by her experiences, both good and bad. 🎯 Relationships: The Girl Child's life is greatly influenced by her ties to her family, friends, and the larger community. 🎯 Skills, Talents, and Capabilities: Her abilities and talents help define who she is and what she can give to the world. 🎯 Aspirations and Goals: Her aspirations and goals affect her decisions and course in life. It's crucial to keep in mind that every Girl Child is an individual with her own particular traits and talents. We are please to Celebrate the International Girl Child's Day with all our esteemed members who has supported us these past years of our existence. #womanofvision #wov #wovafrica #womanofvisionafrica #InternationalGirlChildDay #girlchildday

Women wandering freely in wild and urban landscapes, it's an outcome that benefits everyone. Many don't feel able (for alas v real reasons) to walk, (or ride, roll, skate as is our preferred and available travel) freely. The recent viral post of women walking alone and preferring to meet a lone bear vs a lone man expressed that. And as a lover of walking, I wanted to share some more reflections... As Kerri Andrews writes; 'If walking (I would add independent travel through wheelchair and other assisted walk/travel aids) is central to an individual's humanity, understanding how walking is experienced by different people will enable a better comprehension of our shared humanity' To move our bodies in fresh air is just part of our humanity. However it's much more than that, wandering is where we can do our best thinking, alone in a landscape our thoughts unfurl and creativity arrives through our freedom to wander at ease. As we move we unstick ourselves from blocks, because we physically experience ourselves moving forward, and thus our brain and hearts are also enabled to move forward and find new solutions. I was talking to my male partner about this, especially as he was inspired by another book on the joy of 'Nightwalking' in nature (yes - we really do love walking!). Initially he started his nightwalks, however he admitted stopping them because he wondered what people would think about his motivation for being out alone on an evening. Likewise, I love the idea of nightwalking and the delight of being in nature alone, however I also don't act on this desire because of fear of safety. He fears being seen as the predator and I fear being seen as the prey. This can create a divided approach to solving the problem of being at liberty to wander being open for everyone. Yet it's only together that we can solve this. So along with the practical steps of what to do as a woman, man, trans, cis or non-binary person when out wandering alone, (to counter the gendered threats and risks), we must reshape our thinking together for true liberty. #Nightwalking #SafetyForAll #WomenWanderers #GenderEquality

Women Share Tips For Traveling Alone - BuzzFeed: Women Share Tips For Traveling Alone  BuzzFeed

Many people ask me if, as a woman, it's better to travel completely alone or with a group of women who are also traveling solo. Here's my take: ✅ Traveling alone is great, but traveling with a group of like-minded individuals means you're never alone (if you don't want to be). ✅ It's cheaper. ✅ It's more fun. ✅ You start the trip with a group of strangers and end it with a group of friends from around the world. ✅ You don't have to make as many decisions, and it's simpler.
