TOGETHER A DIFFERENCE WE CAN MAKE
WHY GENDER EQUALITY IS KEY

Women’s rights and freedoms as well as their representation and participation in public life, are the best indicators of democracy and the overall potential of an economy. This is why EWA is focused on committing EU institutions and European and national leaders to accelerate the achievement of gender equality, to reinforce European democracy and to make our economy inclusive and fairer for everybody.

our mission

EWA is committed in strengthening European public policies and programs with a gender perspective, with a view to maximize their social impact and reinvigorate democratic participation across Europe. EWA creates opportunities for broad transnational dialogue between institutions, civil society and social partners.
