- Description
- One-day consultation organised by WIDE. The consultation provided an opportunity to share experiences with speakers from different parts of the world, to raise awareness about positive and negative impacts of microcredit on women and the role they can play in tackling poverty in the European Union. Two main issues were: - Has/does microcredit really lead to women’s empowerment in the South? Which are the improvements to make and the lessons learnt in the South? - Can microcredit be considered a sustainable alternative to stimulate employment and fight against poverty and discrimination both in the Global South as well as in the EU?. .Some 40 participants met and contributed their views on and experiences from micro credit and micro finance projects in Africa, the Middle East, the Balkans, the EU, Asia and Latin America.

- Description
- In this report, Human Rights Watch and the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission document and analyze the impact of state-sponsored homophobia in Zimbabwe, Namibia, Zambia, and Botswana. .The report shows how these attacks attempt to create an atmosphere of intolerance in which governments can erode the basic principles of human rights, and individuals can abuse others with impunity. It contrasts these to the .different situation in South Africa, where the constitution has promised an end to discrimination based on sexual orientation - but where a lack of will as well as foresight has kept these promises short of fulfillment.

- Description
- 'In this report authors give an overview of the most important laws protecting women’s rights as workers. .With this goal in mind, authors do not limit the scope of this report to those rights that apply exclusively to women, but include all those issues that are crucial to workers who are women. As in the frst Labour Rights for Women report, authors look firstly at the legal framework enabling women’s participation and representation in the workplace, the contracts under which they can be employed and the wages to which they are entitled. .Authors then study the legislation regarding non-discrimination, maternity arrangements and protection from sexual harassment. .The report focuses on the legislation that exists in the twelve countries (Egypt, Kenya, Mozambique, South Africa, Tanzania,Uganda, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Guatemala, Paraguay and Peru) in the Labour Rights for Women Project. In order to retain its practical value, this report does not provide an exhaustive list of all relevant legislation and policy in the twelve countries, but an impression of the most important rights that women should be able to rely on.'

Over the last two decades, Africa has made significant strides in developing progressive frameworks to advance the rights of women.This report is structured around four main sections: the first section offers an overview of the evolution of the socio-economic and political terrain within which women’s rights work has occurred. The second substantive sections summarises the key findings from the 51 state reports and the trends noted across all 51 state reports that were submitted to the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA). The third substantive section looks at the 12 critical areas, assessing gaps in state reporting and highlighting illustrative examples where innovation and/or where progress has occurred in specific states.
