Women’s movement in Belarus – formation, development, problems: During the years of social-economic transformation and long-term crisis in Belarus there has been a considerable decline in the professional and social status of women, and a sharp reduction of their actual participation in decision making at all levels and in all spheres. Belarusian women are the least protected social group in the job market: they face discrimination when being employed and dismissed, in the remuneration of their labor. The share of women among unemployed amounts to 65%, and the process of poverty feminization is going on. (Read the whole long on UniBel).

Description of initiative:

We work in Mumbai’s slums and to empower the most marginalized in this huge city to fight for their rights. In a system that is corrupt and inefficient, it’s mostly the poorest who suffer the most. They have no access to even basic, hygienic living conditions and are always facing the worst human rights abuses – whether they are police brutalities or forced evictions.
