For sending materials and physical correspondence, we share our PO Box:
P.O. Box: 9009 | ZIP Code: 22270-014 | Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil
We encourage our entire network to collaborate at this time. The priority now is to take care of ourselves and changing our habits is fundamental. We recommend that you adopt physical distancing and care measures. To do this, get informed and follow guidelines from reliable sources, such as the PAHO/WHO website: http://www.paho.org/bra/covid19
We understand that women are the hardest hit in health emergencies like the one we are facing, both because they are the majority in informal work and because they are primarily responsible for caring for the most vulnerable.
May THEY also be at the forefront of the response to this crisis, and may the networks of affection and collaboration between women inspire and strengthen us to overcome this collective challenge.
