Description
GROOTS operates as a flexible network linking leaders and groups in poor rural and urban areas in the South and the North. To nurture relationships of mutual support and solidarity among women engaged in redeveloping their communities, the network is open to grassroots groups and their partners who share a commitment to four basic goals: To strengthen women's participation in the development of communities and the approaches to problem solving; to help urban and rural grassroots women's groups identify and share their successful development approaches and methods globally; to focus international attention on grassroots women's needs and capabilities; to increase the opportunities for local women's groups and leaders to network directly across national boundaries.
