Frelimo women envoys
The list of our needs is not limited, it
concerns all types of materials needed
for the multiple activities that we have
to undertake: cloth, clothing, school
materials, medical and health equipment,
powdered milk, baby foods...
The best way to accomplish all of these
activities seems to be the creation of
support committees at the level of the
different organisations existing in the
member countries. We feel that this is
very necessary in Africa where - we must
say it — popular solidarity has not yet
found the proper outlet to express the
deep feelings of the masses. And, woman
must understand that her role of mobilisation starts first of all at home amongst
the family.
IN EUROPE
AND ASIA
At the invitation of the Women's Federation of the German Democratic Republic, 4 members of the FRELIMO Women's
Detachment visited the German Democratic Republic last August. Our delegation was headed by Comrade Deolinda
Raul Guesimane, a member of the Central Committee. The purpose of the visit
was to study the development process in
the GDR, particularly the specific achieve
ments undertaken by the women of that
country, and, at the same time, to strengthen the links of friendship and solidarity
between our two peoples even further.
The programme included visits to factories, co-operatives, nurseries, schools
and pioneer camps, as well as meetings
with leaders of the women's Organisations at various levels, (pic. arrival in G.D.R.)
From the GDR 2 members of the Women's Delegation went to represent FRELIMO at the Conference of the Afro-
Asian Women's Organisation in Ulan-Bator,
Mongolia, which took place from 13 - 20
August. FRELIMO is a member of the
AAWO.
During the discussions, our delegation
summarised the present situation of our
struggle in its fundamental aspects
political, military, and national reconstruction and spoke in detail on the participation of women in each sector of
activity. We explained to the Conference how Mozambican women have
been oppressed through the centuries,
both by traditional society and by the
colonial structures. We told of our experience, how direct involvement in a
political movement is the decisive factor
for women's emancipation. We explained how we are fighting the very
common tendency in our societies to
confuse educated women with emancipated women. We described how today
the women in the liberated regions of
our country are fully engaged in all the
revolutionary tasks, side by side with
men and on an equal footing with them.
