About us

Women’s Network BiH is an informal group of civil society organizations and individuals who represent and work on women’s rights and encourage gender equality, that promotes anti-discrimination, freedom of decision-making, equality, non-violence and anti-militarism, through acceptance of feminist values of action – peace, solidarity, trust, fellowship, equality and diversity.

Women’s Network BiH (WNBiH) was adopted and began operating on September 12th in 2009, at a conference by the same name, as a part of the fourth PitchWise Festival of Women Arts and Activism BiH.

In the first half of 2009, the CURE Foundation, along with twelve women’s groups from the network KtK, initiated forming of the Women’s Network BiH (WNBiH). Once the Platform and the Code were created, WNBiH documents were adopted at the above mentioned conference and members continuously access the network.

The network was officially established at the Inaugural Meeting, which took place from July the to July 2nd in 2014 in Sarajevo, where the decisions about coordinating organization and members of the Coordination Committee were made, and Platform and the Code of WNBiH were presented. Proceedings of the IM can be found here. Women’s Network is currently coordinated by the CURE Foundation.
