INTRODUCTION<br />
Through Cama, young women’s voices are heard<br />
locally and internationally as they participate in public<br />
dialogues, and join an array of confidence-building<br />
forums. Innovative film production programs in Ghana<br />
and Zambia are training women in filmmaking, radio<br />
broadcasting and journalism. Forty-five women have<br />
produced 141 broadcasts and films, raising awareness of<br />
painful social issues such as child labor, domestic violence<br />
and the gendered power dynamics that leave so many<br />
women vulnerable to HIV/AIDS. <strong>Camfed</strong>’s award-winning<br />
documentary, Where the Water Meets the Sky, chronicles<br />
the transformative impact that such advocacy has had on<br />
the lives of young women filmmakers in Zambia and their<br />
community. Penelope Machipi, one of the young Zambian<br />
women filmmakers, won the 2009 Goldman Sachs Fortune<br />
Global Women Leaders Award in recognition of her<br />
courage and achievements.<br />
