Enma Diaz (black shirt) and Maria Etelina Miguel are two of four women artisans who attended a Carter Center-sponsored training session In Chiquimula, Guatemala, on the right to access information. Inspired by what they heard, they scheduled a meeting with the mayor to ask how they could get a stall in the local market from which to sell their handmade goods. They got one in February. "We really thank The Carter Center," Enma said. "We didn't know there was a law until they came. Now we know we have the right to ask and can ask without fear."
