Ellen Verryt

I lived almost two decades in the northern triangle of Central America. I worked in this region with international organisations like the UN , as the Belgian cooperation as local humanrights organisations in Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. For ten years I was the program officer for the programs of th Belgian development organisation Worldsolidarity where we worked based on partnerships with unions , youth and womenorganisations . I follow the current political situation in Honduras and Guatemala.My actual main interest is the position of women in the political, social and cultural landscape. My interest in being a member of this network is to see, discuss and learn how we can build bridges between womenmovements between Belgium ( Europe) and grassroots organisations of women and feminists in Latin America.
