We develop an environment free from violence and stereotypes towards women and girls
For equality and against gender stereotypes
The platform works as a corrective to the state in the field of equality, including against gender stereotypes and sexism, which are at the root of inequality and contribute to violence against women.
Coalition of civil society organisations
The Bulgarian Platform to the European Women's Lobby (Bulgarian Platform - EWL) is a coalition of NGOs and supporters from across the country working for gender equality and against all forms of violence against women. We advocate for the interests of all women regardless of their race, ethnicity, health, sexual orientation, age, religion, beliefs or other differences.
Empowering women
The Bulgarian Platform shares and works for a society where women's contributions in all aspects of life are recognized, rewarded and valued - in leadership, in care and in production; all women have self-esteem, freedom of choice; all women and girls are free from violence and exploitation; no woman or girl is abandoned by institutions.
Services and activities
We implement projects and provide services to women victims of violence, for women’s empowerment, to overcome gender stereotypes and stereotypes of women from minority groups, including. Roma, refugee and migrant women.
