The project was designed keeping in mind that progress on gender equality has stalled. At the current rate of change, it will take more than 100 years to close the overall gender gap, and more than 200 years to eliminate gender-based violence. One of the reasons for this lack of progress is that the biases on gender equality. NEWA’s goal is to reignite progress on gender equality by addressing the largest, least-recognized factor preventing women to reach their full potential – Gender Equality. By recognizing, reducing, and asking for policy and legal frameworks revision, NEWA promotes a just society where women and girls have more choices across all stages of their lives, in economic, social and political activities, and where women voices are heard in decision-making about policies and budgets at all levels. The main objective is contributing to a systems-change of how gender equality & feminism principle are perceived and valued by policy-makers, CSO’s, WO and Duty Bearers. By making women voice more recognised and valued as a public good, NEWA aims to help shift how the policy frameworks & economies are structured and how existing legal frameworks, public policies and public services are designed and delivered to transform the lives of women.
