Goals / Remit
Founded in 1990, the European Women’s Lobby (EWL) is the largest alliance of women’s non-governmental associations in the European Union with a steadily increasing membership. The EWL currently consists of member organisations in all 28 EU Member States and three of the five official-candidate countries as well as 20 European-wide member organisations working on very diverse areas and activities. The EWL represents an overall of more than 2000 organisations.
The EWL works towards a vision of a peaceful, social and democratic European Union built on a culture of respect for human rights, equality, peace and solidarity, in Europe and globally, where women and men have equal rights, full enjoyment of their personal integrity and choice, an equal share of social, cultural and economic resources, caring and family roles, and are equally represented in decision making.
The mission of the European Women’s Lobby (EWL) is to work to achieve equality between women and men, to promote women’s rights in all spheres of public and private life, to work towards economic and social justice for all women in their diversity, and to eliminate all forms of male violence against women. The EWL works with its members for the mainstreaming and monitoring of gender equality and women’s rights perspective in all areas of European Union policy and for the achievement of parity democracy at all levels and in all areas.
We work together with our members at predominantly the European but also the national level in order to achieve equality between women and men in all areas of public and private life; actively address issues of economic and social justice and independence for women; work towards the equal representation of women and men in decision-making, and safeguarding women’s human rights including the eradication of male violence against women.
The EWL functions within democratic, open and transparent procedures of communication, decision-making and accountability, including financial accountability.
The European Women’s Lobby monitors and inputs into important political processes at the European Union level, which are relevant for women’s rights including those policy adaptations and innovations required by the radical economic and social changes of the national, EU and world context. We aim to reflect the intersectional nature of women’s needs, in all their diversity, in order for these to be addressed and mainstreamed into all policies and all aspects of socio-political and economic life, and we politically advocate for a dual approach combining specific measures for women’s rights and thorough transformative gender mainstreaming. In our work we will also insist on critically challenging culturally inherited gender stereotypes, and the images detrimental to gender equality between women and men we are confronted with in different ways on a daily basis, and make political interventions as relevant.Main EU files targeted
