„Professionalization and development of Czech women lobby “, is the project’s name realized by Czech Women lobby (CWL) since September 1st 2016. Project is supported by European Social Fund, Operational program - Employment, Social affairs and Inclusion.

Recently we have gone through major development. As voluntary network annually organizing 1 or 2 events, we became important partner in promoting gender equality as for the state administration, politicians, the media, the public as well as for international organizations. In consequence of our development the need of strengthening capacity of CWL has raised. The next goal is to carry on developing as umbrella organization, intensifying methodical assistance as well as consulting towards member organizations.

Key project areas were defined by recommendations of process audit of CWL. By them we would like to raise quality and sustainability of provided services:
