WIDE
Women In Development Europe (WIDE) is a European feminist network of women's organisations, development NGOs, gender specialists and women's rights activists.
WIDE monitors and influences international economic and development policy and practice from a feminist perspective.
WIDE's work is grounded on women's rights as the basis for the development of a more just and democratic world order and the search for alternative approaches to the economic mainstream.
WIDE enables members and partners to articulate alternatives to the negative impacts of globalisation, and makes feminist alternatives visible. Through the dissemination of our research and analysis, WIDE promotes gender equality and social justice.
Banúlacht is the Irish Platform of WIDE.
