Sponsoring Organizations
International Labour Organization
The ILO was founded in 1919, in the wake of a destructive war, to pursue a vision based on the premise that universal, lasting peace can be established only if it is based upon decent treatment of working people. The ILO became the first specialized agency of the UN in 1946. The ILO is the only 'tripartite' United Nations agency in that it brings together representatives of governments, employers and workers to jointly shape policies and programmes. This unique arrangement gives the ILO an edge in incorporating 'real world' knowledge about employment and work. The International Labour Organization (ILO) is devoted to advancing opportunities for women and men to obtain decent and productive work in conditions of freedom, equity, security and human dignity. Its main aims are to promote rights at work, encourage decent employment opportunities, enhance social protection and strengthen dialogue in handling work-related issues. In promoting social justice and internationally recognized human and labour rights, the organization continues to pursue its founding mission that labour peace is essential to prosperity. Today, the ILO helps advance the creation of decent jobs and the kinds of economic and working conditions that give working people and business people a stake in lasting peace, prosperity and progress.

The FES spends approximately half of its annual budget on international activities.

Selection Process
The participant selection and registry processes will be in charge of the Thematic and Liaison Coordinators. The selection process will be performed by the work groups, coordinated by the responsible coordinator of each of the seven thematic axes.
The Selection Committee is conformed by the General Thematic Committee and seven Axis Coordinators. The General Selection Committee is formed by r Ma. de los Angeles Garduño, Hilda Rodríguez and Dellanira Ruíz de Chávez. Each Thematic Axis Coordination includes one coordinator and a work team integrated by people who know about the subject. This team responds and agrees directly with the coordinator, who in her turn agrees with the Thematic General Committee.
 |
Each summary will be judged by two inspectors, if there should be a discrepancy, the axis coordinator emits the final decision. The coordinator for each axis will propose the distribution of the participations accepted in the work sessions.
The fundamental objective of this organization by axes is to give continuity to what has been proposed in prior Congresses about the need to generate knowledge and sustain actions that will modify the living and work conditions of women. |
