Right Sharing of World Resources (RSWR) builds global equity by offering educational opportunities focused on sustainable and just life choices and by partnering with womens’ groups in Guatemala, India, Kenya and Sierra Leone to support group members’ micro-enterprises.
The women’s groups that partner with RSWR name and define their own goals for both their individual businesses and their communities. With support from RSWR country coordinators, these groups often seek to build stronger communities for all, not just those in their group.
In late October, several country coordinators and U.S.-based team members will travel to the East and West coasts of the United States to visit among Friends. RSWR’s social media and emails will contain further details.
In January 2025, RSWR will convene their team in India for a Country Coordinator Consultation. This is an opportunity for the RSWR team to learn from one another and continue to refine RSWR’s programs.
RSWR is transitioning to new leadership, as the outgoing general secretary, Jackie Stillwell, steps down at the end of 2024 after serving for ten years. The new general secretary, Traci Hjelt Sullivan, will begin her term in January 2025 with an opportunity to meet the entire RSWR team in India.
