The European Women’s Lobby (EWL) is the largest European umbrella network of women’s associations in Europe, representing the diversity of women and girls in Europe.

It will be hosting a workshop to reflect on EWL’s young women’s engagement strategy.
The workshop will gather 30 participants from across Europe for four days in Brussels, from 8 to 11 November 2019.

The objectives of the workshop will be to review EWL’s engagement with young women so far and put forward suggestions for the ways in which the EWL can collectively and strategically work with and for young women, now and in the future. The goal will be to produce recommendations from the workshop’s participants to the EWL Board for EWL’s future strategic engagement with young women, that can feed into EWL’s new strategy and other levels of engagement.
