Abstract

This report reviews the progress of the Association for Women's Rights in Development (AWID) 2012 International Forum. A focus on economic power, and on how women’s movements help to advance women’s rights and justice emerged as the clear focus of the Forum, especially considering world economic crises and the recession of 2008. The report is a culmination of feedback, including an online questionnaire sent to all Forum participants in various languages. It provides an initial assessment of key achievements, learnings and challenges taking place as a result of the Forum.
