As I, the international assistant of TNWF, failed to launch the software of blogging in Tamil Nadu when opening this blog page, you could not hear from the voice from the communities directly- and I would like to sincerely sorry for this situation.

For the occasion of Dalit Women's Conference in Tamil Nadu 2007, the international assistant will visit again Tamil Nadu, and I hope the social worker can join for blogging after launching software.

For the moment, International Asisstant of TNWF would like to report some of the remarkable development of TNWF.

1. Participation to WORA 2007 (Tks to PANAP)

2. Fact finding mission of Kollathur Aquafarm- and petition for closure of the farm (Tks to PANAP/ PCFS)

3. Launching Mathamma rights awareness programme (Tks to BLHRRI)

4. Mr. Thatha, who managed facilities of Women's training Centre, Kallaru, has passed away on 8th Jun 2007.

I hope that the information on the homepage would be updated soon, including details of the Dalit Women's Conference. Please check frequently the webpage as much as possible.

In solidarity,

H.N. (Internaitonal Asisstant for TNWF)
