The Archive Centre for Women's History was founded in May 1995, as part of the women's centre Amazone. Its aim
is to preserve the historical heritage of the Belgian women's movement in the form of archives of organizations and
persons. Another goal is to centralize information on archives kept elsewhere. Most of the 40 archives kept by the
Archive Centre cover the period of the 'second feminist wave', but some go back to the Interbellum. The centre also
houses a small library specialized in women's history. Languages: French, Dutch, English.

Offers a full-time academic training in Women's Studies on a post-graduate level. The Women's Studies programme
focuses on the construction and meanings of 'femininity' and 'masculinity' and on how gender differences influence the
construction and production of knowledge. The complementary study in Women's Studies aims to increase the
emancipation-expertise of the participants. One of the main goals are theoretical and analytical insights about the way
in which gender categories influence the social context. All Belgian universities participate in the programme as far as
teachers and students are concerned.

Women's project is a non-profit-organisation for female contractors in South, Eastern-Europe and Belgium. Main
objective: Women are often the driving force of developing a community. Not only are they the center of the family
but they also deploy a major contribution to the production process. The main issue of the organisation is a structual
combat against poverty combined with longlasting expansion. Women's Project is supporting women in activities they
bring out themselves and along with that process, they are supported to earn a stronger position in daily society.
Women's Project is een vzw van vrouwen voor vrouwelijke ondernemers in het Zuiden, Oost-Europa en Belgie.
Doelstelling: vrouwen zijn vaak de motor voor de ontwikkeling van een gemeenschap. Ze zijn niet alleen spil van het
gezin maar leveren ook een aanzienlijke bijdrage aan het arbeidsproces. De rode draad die loopt door de organisatie is
structurele armoedebestijding gekoppeld aan duurzame ontwikkeling. Women's Project wil vrouwen ondersteunen bij
activiteiten die ze zelf aandragen en die hen een eind op weg helpen een sterkere positie in de samenleving te
verwerven.
Women's Project est une a.s.b.l. de femmes pour des femmes entreprenantes dans les pays du Tiers Monde, l'Europe
de l'Est et en Belgique. But: les femmes sont souvent le moteur du développement d'une communauté. Elles ne sont
pas seulement le point central de la famille mais contribuent également au développement de la vie active. Le fil rouge
de l'organisation est la lutte contre la pauvreté structurelle, accouplée à un développement continuel. Women's Project
veut soutenir les activités que les femmes avancent et ainsi les aider à acquérir une position plus solide dans la societé.
