FAWCO and FAUSA members have a long history of fighting for the rights of women and
children and the betterment of the world’s most vulnerable people. Many members are or have
been engaged with global organizations, actively working on these issues. This engagement
might have been as an employee of an international government organization, such as any of
the agencies of the United Nations or the OECD, a regional structure (OSCE, OAS, ASEAN,
OAU), an independent organization like the International Committee of the Red Cross, or an
international NGO. Your role might have been within civil society seeking to influence the
policies of these global entities. In this issue we want you to tell us about your work: the
mission and operation of these organizations and your own personal challenges and
achievements.
