Women's Earth Alliance: Co-Directors Melinda Kramer and Amira Diamond

Women's Earth Alliance: Co-Directors Melinda Kramer and Amira Diamond

Melinda Kramer and Amira Diamond are the Co-Directors of Women's Earth Alliance. Women's Earth Alliance, or WEA, unites women on the frontlines of environmental justice causes by coordinating training, technology, and financial support for thriving communities and the Earth.

When I sat down to talk with Amira and Melinda, they had just returned from the West African Women and Water Training in Ghana. They talked about their experience there, WEA's work, and the paths that brought them to working together.

You'll also hear some singing from the participants of the training as well as the song, "Oshun," by Hamsa Lila.

A transcript of this interview will be up in about a week on my blog, Have Fun Do Good.
