"VOF Week 1: (Endless Possibilities)."



I believe Web 2.0 is the greatest and best idea that has been unleashed in recent times to create a platform for women empowerment and for the world to interact freely. For a long time, women voices have not been heard, or have been ignored and the thing that excites me most about web 2.0 is that at last, our voices can be heard, the world can feel what we’re feeling, and see what we’re experiencing, as though they were right where we are. It has given limitless opportunities for buying and selling, for telling the story as it is, for sharing and networking, opportunities to see and experience the world from the comfort of your home or office. It has created a network of people, groups, and organizations, to change the world in a unified way. It has broken the barriers of race, tribe, culture, and color.



With the endless opportunities that the Web 2.0 brings, it creates a platform for the global women empowerment movement to thrive and grow towards a better future for all women worldwide. Firstly, with women networking from around the globe, limited resources are met in various places through the different women projects established. This is due to the fact that, women can tell of what they’re doing at the grass root level and they can be supported with resources and skills they need to empower their fellow women.
It also brings solutions for world peace, where conflicts are resolved through collaborations with the linkages created by various organizations. Each one brings in the expertise that they have to build peaceable relations and exchange ideas.
Through resource sharing, women find opportunities for growth and development in the areas they’re lacking in knowledge. They get opportunities to help their communities, to thrive in their careers and get education scholarships also.



Information is power and it can liberate one and help in making the right decision when it is shared and can be easily accessed. This is why Web 2.0 is empowering to me. It equips me, as no man is an island and nobody knows everything. Women have tremendous wisdom and are very powerful, they are great mentors and hearing from other women around the world is such a great honor for me, it empowers me and teaches me to excel and be an extraordinary woman! It gives me a platform to hear others speak and also to be heard!
