Women Migrants’ Dictionary

Women Centred Wisdom from Connecting Opportunities

This dictionary was created by women migrants. While most dictionaries focus on written words, we go beyond the usual form to bring together women’s drawings, photographs and video, as well as text, quotations, poetry, proverbs and narrative. These different forms enable readers to engage with women’s ideas whilst the entries offer wisdom, experiences and topics that are important to women migrants.

Women Centred Learning Groups
The dictionary was created as part of our Women Centred Learning Groups with women migrants. Please explore the individual sessions – ‘getting older & being young’ , ‘nurturing confidence’ and ‘caring for ourselves and each other’ – & watch a visual summary about our ways of working.
