About our Membership Call 2026
In the current geopolitical climate, we believe it is more important than ever to come together and promote feminist alternative futures.
The feminism of WIDE+ promotes human rights and intersectional & inclusive equality. Our socio-economic vision does not prioritise unlimited production growth, but rather advances an economic model based on care and well-being in which people live within planetary boundaries. Our political approach is grounded in democracy, transparency and inclusion, principles that are also reflected in our governance model, where we actively encourage the participation of diverse groups and individuals to join!
We want to increase our impact. More members help us make further connections and increase our legitimacy with policymakers at the European level, enabling us to advocate for better solutions.
We are currently seeking to grow our network by welcoming new member individuals and associations to deepen collective feminist collaboration across Europe.
Any feminist individual or organisation that supports our vision is welcome! We are also keen to reach out to organisations in several EU countries in which we do not have yet members, including: Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia. We encourage and actively welcome memberships from associations and individuals based in non-EU countries.
What you can do within WIDE+
Concretely, we will continue working on the following strategic priorities in the coming years, through working groups and organising a Feminist Forum:
- To keep enabling European coalition building of migrant feminists and migrant feminist perspectives.
- Promote Feminist narratives and coalitions across Europe in line with our mission and vision and programmatic focus. Facilitate collaboration and support on current topics of concern, in particular: militarism and peace, transnational feminist solidarity and impact of EU policies.
- Addressing intersectional discrimination in Artificial Intelligence, in particular in labour issues.
- Promoting feminist alternatives in trade policy.
- Raising awareness on gender and climate justice.
- Developing and bringing together feminist economic literacy and providing it in training focusing on methodologies and topics.
