MEWC is a project that aims to raise the awareness of the African Women's Decade (AWD) by providing timely and accurate information, and resources related to African women and girls. The MEWC website aims to be a comprehensive resource to document the situation of women in Africa and highlight the African Women’s Decade.
United Nations Association-UK for over sixty years UNA-UK has been promoting internationalism and the ideals of the UN Charter and Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Today its aims can be expressed as "for a strong, credible and effective United Nations".
