Empowering women through education: Zonta e-Academy in Latvia

The Zonta e-Club of Latvia has launched the Zonta e-Academy: “Learning. Sharing. Empowering.” to promote education as a powerful tool for empowering women and girls.

The e-Academy hosts open lectures, seminars and conversations on the third Wednesday of each month at 7 p.m. (EET). These sessions are designed to strengthen women emotionally, raise awareness of their rights and opportunities, and encourage them to use their talents to build a more just and equal world.

On 15 October, the e-Club will host online lectures titled “Positive Psychology Tools for Fostering Emotional Intelligence.” The sessions will be led by Ilze Laurinaite, a Zontian from the e-Club of Latvia, pedagogue, linguist and self-discovery enthusiast. Laurinaite will provide practical insights to help participants enhance emotional intelligence, resilience and inner balance.

The club invites all Zontians of Latvian origin worldwide to take part in these sessions as a way to learn, share experiences and strengthen connections. By participating, members not only gain valuable knowledge but also reaffirm unity as part of the global Zonta network, advancing the mission of empowering women through education and mutual support.
