Women’s Working Group on Financing for Development (WWG on FfD)
The Women’s Working Group on Financing for Development (WWG on FfD) is an alliance of women’s organisations and networks that advocate for the advancement of gender equality, women’s empowerment and human rights in the Financing for Development related UN processes (e.g. Commissions on the Status of Women in 2008 & 2009; III UN Financing for Development Conference in 2015 etc.). They strive for a rights-based global development architecture that recognizes the central role of the care economy, social reproduction and sexuality.
