Borne of the women's continued resistance against imperialist globalization was the Asian Rural Women's Regional Consultation held in the Philippines in 2007 (of 52 Asian women from 14 countries) followed by the Asian Rural Women's Conference in 2008 held in Arakkonam, Tamil Nadu, India.

Association for Women's Rights in Development
Asia Pacific Forum on Women, Law and Development
APWLD developed from dialogues among Asia Pacific women lawyers, social scientists and activists, which began at the 1985 Third World Forum on Women, held in Nairobi, Kenya. The women participating in the dialogues recognised that while law is used as an instrument of state control over resources, rights and even women’s bodies, it can also be used to help effect political and socio-economic changes in our societies.

About

HISTORIA
En 1978 un grupo de mujeres decidió poner en marcha -desde sus historias, coincidencias y luchas- sus sueños para alcanzar la igualdad de género en el Perú.
Sueños que permitieron darle voz pública a la desigualdad, a la inconformidad, al malestar en la vida de las mujeres y trabajar por un espacio político ideológico, con identidad feminista, para alcanzar la igualdad de género en nuestro país. Liderazgos pioneros que nos abrieron el camino.

GROOTS Kenya bridges this gap through initiatives that are community-centered and women-led.
