Women's Issues Network of Belize
The Women’s Issues Network of Belize is the only network of organizations in Belize whose focus is on the empowerment of women. The network currently has 11 member agencies countrywide.
As a network WIN’s purpose is to provide leadership by empowering and strengthening its member agencies. It develops linkages among organizations that promotes the development of women, facilitates the sharing of knowledge, skills and resources, and advocates for improving the quality of life of women and their families in Belize.
==Background〔External Evaluation, 2008, Bararaza and Vernon〕==
WIN-Belize was established in 1993 when several Belizean organizations came together as a steering committee with the goal of speaking with a common voice on women’s issues, and improving the situation of women in Belize. Since that time, WIN-Belize has gone through several stages in its institutional life. After working on some advocacy and information sharing activities in its early years, the initiative experienced some growing pains and institutional challenges that led to a re-organization in 1997, resulting in a revitalized steering committee and the opening of a small office with a part-time coordinator. By 1998 WIN-Belize became legally registered, with its stated purpose to be a membership network working towards women’s equality and gender equity. Key WIN-Belize activities during this period were the follow-up on the minimum wage campaign and the “Women at Work” conference.
Between 2000 and 2004, comprehensive evaluations and planning processes took place within WIN-Belize. A strategic plan for 2002-2004 was developed in 2001 and in 2004 an external evaluation was conducted as a condition of the 2002-2004 HIVOS project. Members supported the planning efforts by collectively analyzing the national and gender context, identifying issues of concern and developing the actions needed to address the causes of the internal problems. In particular, four focus group sessions with members were held between 2003 and 2004 to help identify issues for WIN-Belize’s efforts. The sessions focused on four different subjects: violence, health, women in economy, and social and economic development. The Gender Budget Campaign was developed in 2006 as a follow-up to the women in the economy issue. In 2004, WIN also became officially registered under the Non-Governmental Organizations Act of Belize.〔External Evaluation, 2008, Bararaza and Vernon〕
