Reaching Out to
Women and Children of the Global South
We want to celebrate what women of the Global South do and what women of Norfolk do.
On the 4th March you will hear about some of the big things that are being achieved by global
action on the millennium development goals.
However, we know that often the small things have the biggest effect and want to share stories of
Norfolk women's own charity projects; as well as fund raising, sponsorship and other projects
aimed at women and children of the Global South, undertaken by Norfolk women and their
communities.
We need pictures as well as words. We could display A3 collages, but are using the screen of
Fusion (Europe’s largest permanent digital screen gallery).
So please send us pictures and text electronically. mrsdorrell@gmail.com
As soon as possible, and in any case by Monday 7th February. This is a big ask and a tight
deadline … … but there are many small, fascinating projects based in Norfolk that it would be
wonderful to hear about. Please help us if you can!

==1st to 12th March “ANOTHER ISRAEL” AN EXHIBITION AT THE HOSTRY, NORWICH CATHEDRAL==
ANOTHER ISRAEL Exhibition celebrates dissenting voices from diverse communities within Israel who oppose the politics of occupation and the abuse of Palestinian human rights. 
This exhibition was  displayed at the Forum in 2009 as part of the annual Peace Camp and there is now another chance to see it at The Hostry during March. 

This exhibition celebrates a variety of Israeli groups that strive to make a difference, working with Palestinian groups towards an Israel that respects all of its citizens and treats them equally, an Israel that lives at peace with its neighbours and abides by international law.

These groups do not figure in any official Israeli celebrations, but their existence and the courage of their members are truly worthy of note. The multiple deprivations of the million or so Palestinian citizens of Israel also require recognition.

It is supported by Jews for Justice for Palestinians, the Palestine Solidarity Campaign, the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD-UK) and Independent Jewish Voices.  www.anotherisrael.org.uk 
Norfolk Jewish Peace Group is primarily concerned with human rights and international law insofar as these impact upon the situation in Israel-Palestine. The Group meets regularly to share information and support projects that promote a just and lasting peace for Palestinians and Israelis. From time to time the Group organises public events, arranges meetings and exhibitions; it works with Muslim, Christian and other peace and interfaith groups concerned with peace in Israel-Palestine.
