“I think this project brings an opportunity for women that have faced serious challenges in their lives and these women have moved away from these challenges and situations to one where they are now believing in themselves, taking risks and carving out their own impressions on Belize’s canvas. It is also an area that we look at as partnership which has been mentioned already around the table. It is a partnership between the Women’s Department and Beltraide, finding common ground and moving people forward. The opportunities, it provides opportunities to share and learn because they are similar experiences across Central America. So it’s larger than just Belize. We can look at what is happening here along with what is happening in other countries in Central America.”
