The Award







FOSTER AWARENESS FOR GENDER SPECIFIC THEMES.
The WOMEN’S WORLD FORUM has established the following goals:

  • Promote the freedom and equality of women as matter of dignity and human rights; moreover – as the basis for social, economic, cultural and political justice.
  • Raise the awareness of particular problems women face by supporting the right of self-determination, gender equality, freedom and the elimination of all forms of social and economic discrimination.
  • Strengthen the empowerment of women in order to facilitate their full participation on the basis of equality in all spheres of society, including involvement in the decision-making process and access to power.
  • Foster awareness by both men and women for gender specific themes and problems including the access to economic assets, the freedom from fear and violence and an equal share of children, sick and elderly-care.
  • Focus on diversity, because no two women need the same support.
  • Build bridges between women living in wealthy nations and those living in developing countries by confronting globalization issues affecting women in the poorest countries of the world.
  • Promote the recognition and strengthen the reputation of the outstanding work done by various organizations and associations by providing access to the global media.
  • Highlight women’s contributions to the progress of women’s related issues, peace, social and economical welfare.
