Arab Summits and Forums
|
|
The National Council for Women has already initiated dialogues
with the different organizations and countries concerned with
women issues to build bridges of cooperation among them.
Therefore, the Council participates in all international
conferences about women. At the regional level, the Council is
also developing strong cooperation with Arab countries in order
to create an influential women movement that would impact all
Arab countries.

The First Arab Women Summit
and
the Special Arab Women Summit
the intellectual fora held in several Arab countries are an
outcome of this major effort:
|
|
|
|
|
· The First Forum
was held in Bahrain about Women and Law
|
|
· The Second Forum
in Tunisia about Women and Politics
|
|
· The Third Forum
was held in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan about Arab Women in Migration.
|
|
· The Fourth Forum
was held in the United Arab Emirates about Arab Women and the media.
|
|
· The Fifth Forum

|
In 2002 the Council will follow-up the recommendations of the five
Arab women symposia and will continue to build bridges between
Egypt and the other Arab countries to share and strengthen their
joint concern about the enhancement of Arab women, which is
closely linked to the development of Arab societies as a whole.

The establishment of the Arab Women Organization
whose Constitution is currently under discussion represents an important success
for the march of Arab women.
