Empowering Women in the Family and Society: In Cooperation with the Arab club in Fellbach e.V

Target Group: Women.

The Workshop aimed at changing traditional perceptions of women’s roles and enhancing their abilities in various life domains.

The workshop began by providing participants with the opportunity to express themselves through the use of various everyday objects. This activity served as an introduction, allowing each participant to showcase a side of their personality and role in daily life, enabling them to highlight their true capabilities and roles. The purpose of this exercise was to encourage women to reflect more deeply on themselves and connect their personal identity with their everyday roles.

The workshop included extensive discussions about empowerment from a new perspective, which goes beyond just empowering women in the labor market. The focus was placed on women’s abilities across all aspects of life, whether personal, social, or familial. One of the most important aspects of the workshop was highlighting the role of women as mothers and educators of future generations, emphasizing the importance of this role in shaping society and passing on values between generations. This topic was approached positively, valuing the role of women in both the family and society and recognizing them as a cornerstone for change and growth.

What made the workshop particularly impactful was the participation of women in sharing their personal experiences. Each participant had the opportunity to tell stories from their daily lives about how they empowered themselves and succeeded in various areas. These shared experiences added a human and emotional dimension to the workshop, allowing participants to engage more deeply with the content and build a supportive network among themselves.

The workshop concluded with a self-appreciation activity, where participants were invited to assess themselves and identify their strengths. This moment was an important opportunity for each woman to review her accomplishments and acknowledge her personal and social significance. Participants were encouraged to strengthen their sense of self-worth and take pride in their role in society, while also emphasizing the importance of continuing to develop their abilities in the future.

This Workshop aimed to promote the concept of personal and professional empowerment for women, changing the traditional view that limits empowerment to the labor market. The workshop served as an opportunity to highlight women’s inner strength and their ability to bring about change in their communities, whether as mothers, workers, or leaders in society.
