Its rush hour in tokyo. The trains and subways in the capital are jam packed perfect conditions for broke its all what the japanese call she cant. So me me its a man touched me on the train once i didnt say anything i stayed quiet. It was unpleasant and i just endured it. Touching happens a lot up here most of the women i know have had that experience. Like smartphones have a natural function guards used to send pictures of the thing. With the big city. As a schoolgirl when one cutter yama was also a graphed on public transport she kept silent out of shape and because this form of Sexual Assault seemed to be an accepted part of Japanese Society even today its dismissed as a trivial offense victims and bystanders are encouraged to call the police but that rarely happens. Even when you Say Something the people around you often just acts annoyed they rarely help you so many have basically just quit saying anything. She recently developed chicano radar and ask that allows users to impose harassment and tag the location it already has 40000 registered uses. My app shows you where gropers are and how many incidents have happened where. Its constantly updated on my own. The absence of as a kind of Warning System for other uses. It wont solve the problem of she can but for a moment how to yammer hopes it will assure uses dont be ashamed youre not alone even if the police are no help. When you know the feeling of powerlessness has a lot to do with the fact that groping are seen as a normal part of life many victims even worry that if i call for help the train will be stopped and their fellow commuters will be late for work. So they say nothing out of consideration what. She can is also a common theme in manga. Here 2 women and girls shown are at the mercy of male growth as many images are far more violent than the us. We need blogger to come up. She was still in Elementary School the 1st time a man reached inside her underwear shes written a book about what she experienced and is now calling on other women to speak up as well you know how much i took the train to school along with friends who are boys their experiences of taking the train were completely different to mine i realize men will only be able to understand the problem if we talk about it loud and clear. Shes also taken her message under social media. Takes us to an event for women whove decided to speak out the flower demo is held once a month its attended by people who have been victims of groping and other forms of Sexual Violence normally about 500 people attend but today they are fewer because of a typhoon. Over one reason were here is because in march several cases of Sexual Assault resulted in acquittals. 4 of them. Left the crowd falls silent for many here its the 1st time theyve spoken about their experiences Sexual Harassment and assault has long been a to do topic in japan. So this demonstration is very important to us. Its a place where we can gather hope. And feel like our voices might help change things. I say even men are speaking out in solidarity with their daughters. But with us im a man but this isnt just a problem that affects other people the world of their own life. To me too movement may be bigger in other countries but in japan a country for. Amos for its reticence the flower demos are practically a revolution. Because youll see. Some of the women whove spoken out about incidents they felt they could never talk about it gets the problem out into the open and gives women the feeling that theyre in it together. Not if you. Come out go go well plans to return here every month to raise awareness and create change. Gender based violence is not only common in Public Places it overshadows many relationships too in many societies women are literally at the mercy of their partners according to a World Bank Report from 2017 marital rape was still not considered a crime in as many as 112 countries the United Nations estimate that around 15000000 women between the ages of 15 and 19 have endured forced sex husbands and partners pose the greatest risk and lucy one she couldnt django grew up in done dora one of my robis poorest districts she knows firsthand how hard life here can be going through a whole lot going through. Our gotten to. Be for me i experience the violence. And. Just heard. About 10 years ago at the age of 19 lucy found out that the father of her son david had infected her with hiv david died of just 7 months lucy decided to fight against the virus and for women she founded a club called the positive young women voices a regular meetup for women in the settlement to talk about Sexual Violence including from their partner. He beat me every day one of people told me that he slept with lots of other women i mean he always went out drinking and i went to bed hungry you know him and i learned then of the deadlock with a marriage a Sexual Assault can occur with a marriage if your husband forces himself on you when you dont want to then thats right plain and simple. My friend once came to me and told me that her husband was forcing himself on. The 1st i lost in the fact that she wanted to report her husband but she insisted that it was right. So we went to the Police Station and the police just laughed and said but hes your husband as you are now theyre. Talking about violent experiences doesnt mean they wont happen again. But the women find that discussing it among themselves has a positive effect. On what it would do what their regular meeting very important for us because we have to show what you know then you can get somebody whos relating to what another person is going through and maybe that is how we learned it is not normal like being abused where you know what theyve stayed here for so long. Theres nothing normal about that. Lucy is also fighting at a political level she campaigns at conferences for more gender equality in her country she also represents those living with hiv the infection rate among young women in kenya has been on the rise again in recent years one reason is a lack of education on talk of concerts in schools and bring in high schools even the schools were going to cannot just come with condoms even if their students ask for it and start demonstrating on how to use. The term course kaos so we. Dont top 6 indication in schools then theres also the trend for. Young people to do to. Over to you fight that and those who go to young men are going to engage with all the people who they post photos from for issues or sexual favors. For times that are supposed to infection. Sexual favors in exchange for money some women are in such financial need that they see no other option getting a School Education is one step towards female autonomy but there are lots of things that stand in the way even menstruation many women cant afford sanitary products and so they dont go to school during their periods. Lucy has had to deal with this issue and so shes trying to resolve it. At least were here because of their dr girls Month Initiative which is our monthly initiative where we go to 5 schools where we give sanitary towels to girls and mentorship to both boys and girls we want to keep to keep our guys in school to reach the short story to find that. Being in the world under a its not a world of community so you find that Center Towers are sometimes not truly my love was lucy uses her visits to schools to talk to stevens about sexual autonomy especially the young women. Goalless to have real equality in kenya and she wants others to benefit from her painful experiences. Everything i do is powered by i dont want anyone else to go through what i went through if i can help it because the job perhaps so much you only need our own model because for me i felt i had a bad time i locked someone i could look up to i liked someone i could talk to like ive been through and effectively but in my very cool way then i think thats thats all i need.

The beginning is that. You dont choose where your. Another village is a pop star in india and shes just been on her 1st tour she doesnt need to make money from music because shes been rich since but. For most of her fans having a life like 9 years is nothing more than a dream. I think best in india. Gab between the vision the board is massive and while going up there always sort of been me from within and i want to do something to bridge that gap. The bill of familys private assets are worth an estimated 9000000000 euros her father kumar owns an industrial empire button on your didnt join the Family Business she set up her own company such tundra microphone that grants micro loans to people who would normally be tonight alone she had no Prior Experience in banking. Everyone. In the industry was in there. Is only 14 and i was at 17 so initially no wonder we see as the bank closing date mysteriously no one was willing to lend to me one was willing to come on board and believe that. All rather duffus thing to get over was getting people on my side and making that weve got to make them understand im serious about this and im not just im a kid but im a kid with a vision. Indians who were born into poverty usually state. The cost system often determines peoples social status and chances of climbing the ladder and so i just decided for them. Its almost impossible for farmers in the countryside to get a bank loan most of them dont have the necessary financial means all securities so tom true microphone helps people like these with whats called a micro credit. This farmer has taken out a micro credit of around 100. 00 euros to buy another cow and increase his production the family needs a 2nd line to pay for a hospital visit for the father and son of around 400 euros. The mother. Came up with her life it was very difficult before we were struggling a lot. I dont always dreamt of having a cow but i couldnt make it happen. Thanks to the micro credit i was able to buy one now i can sell its milk and the money really helps toward household costs. The company has already paid out around 30000000. 00 euros in microcredit mostly to women the money goes towards all kinds of things like machines animals and you house a car and insurance around 99 percent of the borrowers keep up with every payments because of the new special system. And so i create is on the coast so we put. These in a group and if one doesnt then everyone all the other leaders have to chip in and. And that pressure it adds a little bit of pressure. To private bank has already helped more than half a 1000000 women across india. Demand is very high for these micro loans. Even though the Interest Rates are comparable to those of a conventional bank. The process is simple customers apply for a loan online using an app. Every customer gets that are in digital account. And then your bell maintains that shes not a charity. I think we are a catalyst for their growth and thats what i would like to see because if you pay us with principal and interest when i helping them in any way were just i provide them with a broad out that would support them to grow. This is a chance for people to break free from poverty a chance that they might not have got from anyone else. A little cheat. This week on global team comes from mexico. And.

Now in global ideas were off to chile in south america as a nation blessed with tons of sunshine kinney seems predestined to make use of solar Energy Around the town of molina on reports that alexa maya discovered keen to use renewables to cut costs and protect the climate. Grapevines like lots of sun as long as they get enough water as well but it hasnt rained in the district of molina for months and the amount of snow and ice melt from the andes has declined decades ago the government sold the rights to ground and surface water to private Sector Companies so to secure access to water one had to have money. Says thats wrong. Those with more rights have access to more water thats how water is distributed here not perfect so their outfits with just one hectare would have more water. Land distribution isnt equitable. And thats a big problem in chile. Given their grandkid morales has 400. 00 hectors under cultivation half his grapes go to another larger one every venus and pedro they advise him on ways to get by with less water for example mining irrigation channels to reduce seepage. The new san pedro has a drip irrigation system that optimizes uptake by the vines and minimizes waste. But its still powered by a diesel generator the fuel is expensive and its not eco friendly. But that is set to change were. Going to install solar panels and we already have a bio gas plant here. The plant runs on the seeds and skins of the grapes after weve pressed them at harvest time. Massa rate all that and feed the plant with it all here around. But. Solar panels on the roof of the winery have already cut energy costs by a 3rd mean your san pedro aims to have switched entirely to Renewable Energy by 2021. With Financial Support from the german Chilean Chamber of commerce and industry its considering a Feasibility Study for a pumped hydroelectric facility just store the energy it generates.

Vignette san pedro established in 1965 it sells 72000000 liters of wine a year and uses the same amount of water just to bottle it the chamber of commerce considers the winery exemplary in its commitment to Renewable Energy and the efficient use of water. I Mean Companies in the Food Industry cant get around adopting measures to hans and share fish and say what especially exporters. There are overseas markets where people pay a lot of attention to where goods come from. Consumers have become very demanding. When they want to buy wines that have been produced sustainably. Without excessive use of water without leaving a massive ecological footprint have. Recurrent and persistent droughts mean irrigation is of increasing importance as are Energy Efficient and eco friendly delivery systems. But. The projects weve done so far such as studies we. Have all involved companies that realize they need to act. They come to us and say we want to conduct a Feasibility Study to see how we can address the energy issue. And enhance Energy Efficiency. And then eco node processes walnuts it solar panels provide about a 3rd of its electricity that has reduced operating costs and allowed the company to invest more in automation that in turn has raised the not utilization rate. Thats important because one of harvest have been declining due to drought. And. Thats because he says Energy Efficiency is very important. It helps conserve Natural Resources and reduce carbon emissions. And of course it lowers our costs its also good for our brand it enhances our image especially among foreign customers.
