The eighth event of the Young Women’s Parliament took place in June 2013, in Gisser A-Zarka and was hosted by Muchamad Chamdan, head of the Education department and of the Cultural Center in Gisser. The event was organized by the local activists of the Young Women’s Parliament, led by Watfa Amash, coordinator of the “Women Reborn” project in Gisser. Representatives of Shin (the Israeli movement for women’s equal representation) attended the event and Dr. Irit Dalumi greeted the girls on Shin’s behalf. About 30 local girls participated.
The main issue of the event was “social networks and the use of internet in girls’ lives”. Some of the girls performed in a humoristic play titled “my best friend” and a lecture was given by Saja Amash about the internet, its potential contribution and risks.
