The Writing Skills Development Project’s primary objective during 2007 are to develop the writing skills of emerging women writers and to contribute to the development of gender-informed writers producing gender-informed media.
We plan to expand the journal-based and online writing projects to accommodate both male and female writers who want to write about gender and women’s rights issues and expand the Writing Project to reach young school-going boys and girls.
