The Women Empowered Project spotlights some of the issues that women and girls in the developing world face while demonstrating practical, proven solutions to fighting global poverty.

"I thoroughly enjoyed working with Phil on his Women Empowered Project (http://womenempoweredproject.com/) from 2005-6, and was lucky enough to work for the nonprofit organization he started (www.bridgesweb.org) from 2006-8. Phil taught me much of what I know about digital storytelling, and I have had the pleasure of working for him on projects in northern India, New Mexico and Seattle on numerous occasions.
Phil exhibits a rare blend of extraordinary photographic ability combined with an equally extraordinary spirit and ability to teach others his craft. His photographs inspire everyone who sees them to have empathy and take action regarding international issues. I always look forward to his latest photographs and projects!"24th June, 2009
