The June issue of the IAW newsletter has just been published.

Our hostess in Zimbabwe presents herself in this Newsletter and there is a new deadline for registration for Congress: July 1. IAW has joined an international campaign protesting against the way The ECOSOC Committee on NGO’s operates. IAW is also active in the process of finding a feminist Secretary General for the UN. We have interesting news from our members in Greece, Cameroon, Norway and Australia. A growing number of countries affected by child marriage have started to make national strategies to address this practice. Countries like India, Bangladesh and Malawi.
