WIDE+ is inviting activists, researchers, students, NGOs, experts, volunteers, and others to one of the thematic Working Groups (WGs) to join the work carried out by WIDE+ individual members, members associations and others. You can join as volunteer, and/or become a member of the network to support our work.
You can join thematic Working Groups and be involved in the project Working Groups. Involvement will vary according to the different working group and own interest; it may be ad-hoc or based on a longer term engagement.
New Working Groups can be formed. For further information, please write to info@wide-network.org.
It is up to the interests of WG members to shape the agenda of the Group. WIDE+ Caucus and the board offer support and coordinate the work of WGs with the overall strategic direction of WIDE+.
Most communication of the groups takes place online, through skype, email or phone. WIDE+ is raising a budget to enable WG members to come to or set up face-to-face meetings.
Working Groups are for active WIDE+ members and non-members. At a minimum, a member of the group can expect an online meeting once every couple of months.
Interested to find out more about a Working Group?
Kindly contact WIDE+ coordinator Gea Meijers, info@wide-network.org, for more information; she will make the connection to the specific groups for you.

Very good to get to know one feminist association that seems to be so active. I am a Brazilian researcher and feminist beginning my PhD in Berlin with the focus on women’s access to natural resources and would like to know how to participate in the working groups.
