WIP will join the Conference of Women Parliamentarians from South East Europe “Equal and Empowered – Stronger together”, next 2-3 March, at the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia.
Background
The Women Parliamentary Network of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia (WPN) was established on February 14, 2013 as an informal network of women MPs from all political parties represented in the Serbian Parliament.
To date the WPN has achieved significant results in improving the position of women in Serbia. It has become a recognised actor in the field of gender equality both nationally and regionally. Recognising the importance and benefits of networking amongst women politicians at all levels, the WPN would like to incite regular meetings of women parliamentarians from SEE in order to share their experience with each other and discuss issues of common concern.
Therefore, the Women Parliamentary Network is organising a conference to gather women parliamentarians from SEE and explore possibilities of future cooperation.
The Regional Conference will take place from 2nd till 3rd of March 2015 in Belgrade at the House of the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia.
The Conference will gather Members of Parliament, representatives of the executive branch of power, nongovernmental organizations, international organizations, independent experts, and academia.
