WIDE+ (Women in Development Europe+) is a European feminist network of women’s rights advocates, gender specialists, women’s rights organizations and development NGOs. It works through interlinked strategies of analysis and capacity building (feminist literacy), innovative movement building and advocacy informed by a feminist perspective.
The protection of women’s human rights is WIDE+’s key objective. Members call for gender justice in combination with social justice, since gender justice can only be brought about if intersecting unequal power relations are addressed. WIDE+ strongly believes that women are a not homogeneous group and that without respect for the multitude of feminisms, we can’t build agency. WIDE+ is a European network that works in solidarity with women’s rights organizations in the Global South and other associations in the North, such as grassroots groups or migrant networks, representing different regions and identities.
Not only an intersectional critical perspective that stands for a diversity of feminisms is important, also a participatory, empowering and holistic approach– that is what a feminist vision means to WIDE+. WIDE+ is a democratic association with 20 organizational and around 40 individual members. The number of associations involved is indirectly much greater, bringing together approximately 300 associations; at least half of the members organizations are national platforms or other kinds of networks that bring together a group of other associations.
WIDE+ has the following aims:
• Create and widen spaces to multiply the impact of feminist activism;
• Influence and transform institutional settings, power relations, policies and practices;
• Act in solidarity with feminist and human rights movements.
