Frauen ohne Grenzen | Women without borders

Women without Borders is an advocacy, PR and lobbying organisation for women around the globe. As an international initiative for women in politics and civil society, Women without Borders offers women a forum so that their voices can be heard and their concerns made public.

Women without Borders supports women all over the world as they strive towards the inclusion and participation of women in all levels of decision making processes, and to bring their talents and energies in to the public arena.

Women without Borders stands for non-violent and peaceful conflict resolutions in countries of transition and reconstruction. For positive politics that cultivate the decisive inclusion of women, we advocate a future without fear, suppression and violence.

The activities of Women without Borders spotlights the courage and dedication of leading female supporters of civil society and work determinedly to bridge the gap between cultures. Through global dialogue, targeted information, the creation of alliances and with model projects with international partner organisations, Women without Borders empowers women towards positive change.

In November 2008 Women without Borders launched a new global campaign: SAVE- Sisters Against Violent Extremism, the first women´s counter terrorism platform that brings together women from across the globe: victims and survivors of terrorist attacks, activists, educators, policy makers, peace-building experts from Latin America, Africa, the US, Asia, the Middle East and Europe to create a new sisterhood and contribute to a more peaceful world.
