Women's Intercultural Network - WIN

Women's Intercultural Network - WIN Women's Intercultural Network is a UN ECOSOC consultative NGO operating globally, regionally and nationally to amplify the voices of women in society.

Women’s Intercultural Network (WIN) is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) with Consultative Status to the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). WIN’s mission is to ensure that all women and girls have a voice for full participation in their government and economy on the ground and on the Internet. WIN has been ‘bringing the global local’ since the 4th World Conference on Women, Beijing 199

5 with the first state policy mechanism and implemented the Beijing Platform for Action (BPFA) with the California Women’s Agenda (CAWA). A major focus of CAWA and the BPFA has been Human Rights policy and CEDAW – the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women. WIN is spearheading women NGOs and civil society organizing in support of implementing municipal CEDAW ordinances with the Cities for CEDAW Campaign. WIN serves as Co-Chair and Peer Leader with the San Francisco Department on the Status of Women who are working with Mayors and city officials on the Campaign. WIN believes that implementing CEDAW can help to create a more civil society in the world and safe, healthy, sustainable cities. We invite you to join with us and our lead civil society partner The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights/The Leadership Conference Education Fund to ‘bring the global local’ with CEDAW to the grassroots of America and US ratification.

Observed every year on June 12, the World Day Against Child Labor is a global call to end the exploitation of children in the workforce. According to the International Labor Organization (ILO), millions of children worldwide are still engaged in labor that deprives them of education, health, and a safe childhood. Many work in hazardous conditions—handling dangerous machinery, chemicals, or enduring long hours for minimal pay.

This day unites governments, employers, workers’ organizations, civil society, and individuals to strengthen action against child labor. It also raises awareness about the root causes, such as poverty, lack of access to quality education, and weak labor protections.

Ending child labor is not just a moral duty—it is essential for building fair, sustainable societies. Education, social protection programs, and decent work opportunities for adults are key solutions. By supporting ethical businesses, advocating for stronger laws, and promoting community awareness, everyone can contribute to change.

The World Day Against Child Labor reminds us that every child has the right to learn, play, and grow in safety. Protecting these rights is a shared responsibility that shapes the future of our world.

Ahead of the 5th Ministerial Conference on Feminist Foreign Policy in Madrid, our Co-Executive Director, Faye Macheke convened with feminist and women’s rights organizations at the challenging whether feminist foreign policy funding systems genuinely support movement transformation.

Citing our 2024 'Where is the Money?' report, Faye reminded everyone of the reality that 60% of feminist groups feel pressured to align with funders’ political strategies, while 90% report insufficient funding for their movement agendas. The disconnect between funding requirements and the organizing realities on the ground is critical.

Feminist foreign policy must move beyond superficial declarations of commitments to fundamentally redistribute decision-making power to grassroots movements, transforming from mere feminist branding into practical and structural change.
