Woman by Woman Wins Freddie Awards

The FREDDIE Awards are bestowed annually on outstanding videos, films, web sites, and other media products highlighting health and medical issues. In the 2002 Women’s Health category, the FREDDIE Award went to Woman by Woman: New Hope for the Villages of India, a film by Dorothy Fadiman documenting the family planning and community leadership work of Janani, one of PCI’s partners in India. Woman by Woman shows that Janani’s work empowering rural Indian women through education, health and medical services, and enhanced community leadership roles not only helps the women and their families, but also raises levels of overall community health. David Andrews, on behalf of PCI as executive producer of the film, accepted the award at the November 8 awards ceremony in New York City.
