Asian women in migration: September 2010
http://yoojin-in-asia.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 3, 2010. The end is never the end. Last summer, I think I was blessed with almost everything. But then, my interests took a little turn while I was in Hong Kong. Early on, I mentioned that I got both research and advocacy parts through my stay in Hong Kong. Moreover, deep exposure into the issue of migrant domestic workers and the upcoming ILO Convention next year, made me focus on this specific group of migrant women, rather than the general population, and consider variables such as l...

Ayiti Cheri: May 2010
http://sybillinhaiti.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Going Home to Haiti for the First Time. Wednesday, May 19, 2010. Homeland, New land. When I was in elementary school, my teachers taught us to sing "Ayiti Cheri" ("Haiti Cherie" in Fench or "Dear Haiti" in English), a wistful ode to Haiti sung from the perspective of someone who has had to leave the country. The first verse is my favorite:. Yiti Cheri, pi bon payi pase ou nan pwen. Fòk mwen te kite ou pou mwen ka konpran valè ou. Fòk mwen te lese ou pou m te kab apresye ou. The song inspired an.

Going Home to Haiti for the First Time. Tuesday, September 7, 2010. Women's Health with Some Vinegar on the Side. In the US, this routine screening might happen via a. So, given limited resources, where do we go for help? A bottle of vinegar. There is a fast and low-cost method for identifying early signs of cancer. It is called Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid (VIA). The procedure involves a large q-tip soaked in vinegar solution. The q-tip is applied to the cervix (see refresher on. Or by freezing (.

Asian women in migration: May 2010
http://yoojin-in-asia.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 19, 2010. The end is the beginning. Already a week has passed since the end of a hectic academic year. Now I should really get started with my summer project! During this summer break –which is the first break, and also probably be the last- I plan to pursue an independent research into three topics that are dear to my heart and soul. Migration, Gender, and Asia. Why migrant women in Asia? I mean the conclusion of your study will be something like- community organizing, government support,...

Asian women in migration: June 2010
http://yoojin-in-asia.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Road to real empowerment? In my previous post, I questioned whether the South Korean government's recent efforts in bringing 'multiculturalism' are truly effective in empowering migrant women. While in Seoul, I explored three examples that could act as alternatives to the problematic top-down approach. 1 "Let our voice be heard": theatre run by migrant women. 2 "We as transmitters of multiculturalism": a restaurant run by migrants. 3 The first women migrant local legislator.

Ayiti Cheri: July 2010
http://sybillinhaiti.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Going Home to Haiti for the First Time. Friday, July 30, 2010. Getting Ready, Getting There. I am finally in Haiti! Here is the promised pre-departure post, along with one on my first impressions. As I get ready to leave for Haiti, I have been collecting words of advice from friends and family. Sometimes their contributions are solicited, but often not. Either way, I am touched by the concern people have shown me for this trip. 8221; (Translation: don’t be too friendly.). I flew to Port-au-Prince on a Th...

Ayiti Cheri: August 2010
http://sybillinhaiti.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Going Home to Haiti for the First Time. Sunday, August 8, 2010. Things are going well here with work - I have happily joined a team of professionals who support women's health in rural Haiti. I will dedicate my next post to my public health activities, but in the meantime I have to comment on this Wyclef business:. Wyclef Jean is really trying to run for president of Haiti - he submitted the necessary paperwork this past week. I still can’t believe it. This news raises obvious q. As some of his. A non-pr...
