We have a vision of societies where women and men of all ages, regardless of their national, cultural, ethnic, social and ideological background and identity, represent their own needs and interests through public discourse and play an active role in political decision-making.
We aim to empower women in Central and Eastern Europe and in Germany as actors in:
- the democratic evolution and peaceful strengthening of ties in Europe
- gender democracy and gender justice
- civil conflict prevention and intervention
- social justice and solidarity
- mutual acceptance and understanding
We are active in initiating dialogue and co-operation between:
- civil society actors and people with political responsibility
- multipliers in NGOs
- teachers and students in both state and private educational institutions
