Coordinamento Donne nel Mondo
The association was founded around the idea of encounter and dialogue between people and especially women of different cultural traditions, to support them in times of difficulty (violence of all kinds: verbal, physical, psychological, sexual, economic, gender and racial), to guide them in their careers and in understanding and collaborating constructively. One of the main objectives is to promote women as the engine of society’s development, thus ensuring gender equality: the CDM aims to support women in difficulty, restoring their dignity and bringing them back to the centre of attention that their role has always deserved. Another cornerstone of the Women in the World Coordination is interchange and intercultural dialogue. The association, in fact, aims to promote interculturalism, the exchange between different (but complementary) countries and ways of being.
