<p>Women and Men are equally as smart! In the past women only did house chores, cooking and took car of the kids and when women wanted to work in men's jobs it was a big shock. This change was hard for men to accept and took them a while to be okay with it and accept it.</p>

<p>There are many empowering women. Rosa Parks is one of the many. She took a stand and changed history forever. Michelle Obama is also very powerful. She is the first lady, and has a large influence. To me the definition of empowering women is someone with an effluence that uses it in the right, and beneficial way.</p>

Bravo... Josh Z,<br />

My argument for clean burning , low cost, biomass stoves are ecumenical. To free the time & volume of fuel collection, cooking time, to free her, and her children's lungs from disease, and to increase food security via fertility of increasing soil carbon content.<br />

How the time is spent, are opportunities for empowerment. Educational, religious, or economic, it all seems good to me.<br />

Precisely the reason I chose 'Understanding' as the prime Secret of Learn1. Empowerment must arise through right apprehension of the target-cultures' actual needs as perceived by the people themselves. Thus will sustainable change flower from the sovereigns' position of power instead of flowing from a benefactor. Entitlement and gift programs from a top-down angle tend to enslave both the giver and receiver... sustainability arises from the orchestration of free-standing basins of reciprocal action, not from one-way feeds.<br />
<br />
Any attempt to <i>impose</i> 'improvement' is going to meet inertial resistance which will be counterproductive to assistive aspirations. For those who are content with the status quo, or who bear the yoke of passivity with gladness, respect is due in the form of non-interference. However, for women who aspire unto freedom -- that is, aspire to be free from their perceived resistances and restrictions in any given sphere of action -- then it is in Humanity's best interests to foster such self-reliance at every opportunity with all ingenuity possible. Thus will general conditions improve the individual's liberty, such as the net result in a village when the women are empowered to make the changes they desire and need. Kevin,

<br />
For example, many women choose to completely cover themselves with garb because that is what "they" believe is right because their religion. I think if we're going to discredit their traditions, we must be very respectful and sensitive in the approach because while they may be foolish to us, it is part of who they are, and in many cases, who they want to be.<br />
