What is it?

S4G, the un-mediated, not moderated social platform

Have you ever thought you have something to “express” with a social dimension but never had the opportunity to do it?

Then S4G is what you are looking for:

  • Open, unrestricted and easy to use
  • Three mediums to choose from: TEXT, VIDEO, PHOTO
  • A way to express your ideas, reflections and expertise, on social issues and broader development and society at large
  • You do not need to be an expert but just passionate about what you share

Gender Issues: Can We Treat Everyone Equally?

Micro Text Sharing

SOCIETY AT LARGE

Recently I spent a bit of time walking around my new home.  As usual I was myself, shaking everybody's hands, even hugging some females when I left their homes, just because they treated me so well. There were huge smiles on the women's faces when I left.  On some level I'm pushing the limits.  On the following morning one of my colleagues told me that there was some negative talk about what I had done.  He said it was ok to shake young girl's (up to 12 or so) hands but after that no touching.

Are we close to a real change in the perceptions towards persons living with disabilities? Maybe not but surely a recent blind cricket match shows the potential to build bridges among the society and show the way forward for a more inclusive society. The most amazing thing? That the private sector seems to be on board...

We talk about equality and justice but when it comes to household chores men say "no no". Why do they say no to household chores? It is because they can't do it or they don't want to do it?
