In honor of today, thought I'd share with you all the special edition of World Pulse Spotlight, the biweekly newsletter published by World Pulse Magazine here in Portland.
World Pulse is a media enterprise connecting the energy and innovation of women worldwide into a collective force for global transformation. Through our online headquarters, www.worldpulsemedia.com, biweekly World Pulse Spotlight e-newsletters and new interactive website, PulseWire (currently under development), we partner with brave women journalists, entrepreneurs and leaders who are building solutions to global challenges. We offer them increased visibility, connectivity and influence by linking them to a growing audience yearning to connect and make an impact.
I've been working with them for a couple of years now, and for this double feature issue, I was handed the editorial reins, so to speak. While exhausting to produce - especially with the late-breaking news from Iran, and original content from Kenya! - it was also incredibly rewarding.
Filled with the latest headlines, events and action opportunities from around the globe, we are all particularly proud of this edition of Spotlight, and are blasting it out to our personal and professional networks in honor of International Women's Day.
Enjoy, and pass it along in honor of the women in your life!

World Pulse Spotlight
March 7, 2007
"In the weeks leading up to International Women's Day, our hearts have been quickened by the rising tempo of women's voices calling out and being heard. From the mouths of the young at the UN Commission on the Status of Women and the bullhorns on the streets of Tehran, where 33 brave leaders were arrested on Sunday for their demonstration, we are hearing a crescendo that cannot be silenced. From Mexico to Turkey to Kenya, women and men are uniting to stamp out gender-based violence — knowing that together we are transforming society and creating a better world.
For this special edition we share the words, gatherings and calls to action that have particularly inspired us as we listen with mounting excitement. We also turn our Spotlight to Iran, with breaking coverage of the government's recent crackdown on rights activists leading up to this day. We stand in awe of these determined women, and applaud their courageous stance."
