The Fund’s principal aim is the provision of support
for those individuals and associations likely to change
discriminatory legislation and to facilitate the
evolution of attitudes in their countries. It also takes
into consideration the demands made by women’s
associations to exchange their experiences, create
networks and help to develop peace, solidarity and
environmental protection in the region.
