Women's Leadership in time of Crisis - Online Lecture Series
In April and May, WePower conducted a Wide-Spread Campaign calling for the equal engagement of women
in various ‘exit strategy’ committees and in the new government. Thanks to our campaign together with other
feminist organizations which included a petition to the Supreme Court, a new committee headed by a woman
and with nine women among its thirteen members was established.
The creation of a coalition of feminist organizations and activists - The Women’s Council for Civil Security,
with some 150 women. The coalition sounds a gendered voice at the highest echelons of Israeli government,
and supports gender-sensitive decision making and work in unison with parliamentary committees to impact
policy and legislative initiatives. To read more about the establishment of The Women’s Council for Civil
Security please go to:
