<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Magaly Pineda had sent some days back a message
from the Coalition Women Won´t Wait with a position for the G8 demanding
Action on Violence Against Women. The statement is below. It would be good
to know if you agree with it and we can indicate our support as FTF and also
send it to our colleagues at GCAP as a position we want them to clearly
demand from the G8 meeting. I would very much appreciate your
comments.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Magaly Pineda envió hace unos días un mensaje
de la Coalición Women Won´t Wait (Las Mujeres no Esperamos) con una posición
para el G8 demandando que tomen acción en cuanto a la violencia contra las
mujeres. Debajo está la declaración en inglés y como adjunto la declaración
traducida al español. Les agradecería mucho si contestaran indicando si
están de acuerdo y si les parece que la podemos apoyar como ETF y a su vez
enviarla a los colegas de GCAP como una posición que queremos que presenten
como demanda al G8. Les agradezco vuestros comentarios. También pueden
adherirse a través del correo de la campaña.</FONT></DIV>
