Training leads to women holding leadership positions
|
 |
|
Starting in 1996, the Guyana Mining, Metal & General Workers’ Union held annual workshops to help women develop the skills and knowledge to become shop stewards.
|
|
As the workshops developed, they put more emphasis on empowering women to face the challenges of globalisation. The success of these workshops is evident – as a direct result, women now hold the positions of General Secretary and Principal Assistant Secretary of the union.
