Acrobat icon [1]

Written by Sofia Montenegro and Elvira Cuadra and translated into English by Donna Vukelich, this study discusses the experience of the Xochilt Acalt Women’s Center in Malpaisillo, Nicaragua during a 10-year period. The Women's Center works to end discrimination against women through consciousness-raising, while also addressing issues such as economic inequality, access to property and land, sexual division of labor, and access to productive resources.
