The ICFTU Women’s Network for Central and Eastern Europe (ICFTU CEE Women’s Network) was established on November 14-15, 1997 in Gdansk. At the beginning it was consisted of 12 women’s structures/trade union confederations from 9 CEE countries. Extetended to the former Soviet Union countries – New Independent States, Caucasus and Central Asia, the Network changed the name to the ICFTU CEE&NIS Women’s Network. Before the unification of the ICFTU and WCL to the ITUC, their women’s networks merged on 30 October 2005, gathering together 43 women’s structures in 43 trade union confederations from 24 countries.
Today, now operating within the ITUC Pan-European Regional Council/PERC/, it puts together 48 trade union women’s structures from 26 countries grouped in 6 sub-regions:

MEASURING METHODOLOGY
The Women’s Network, self-organised in 1997 within the formerICFTU/International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (today part ofthe ITUC-PERC) started to gather gender related data from all tradeunion confederations in the former communist region on regular annualbasis since 2000, started with 14 organisations surveyed and growingto 50 organisations from 26 countries. The annual representativityreport is presented at the annual conference and discussed at regional,subregional and national levels. A special methodology was developedto enable ranking of the confederations on the basis of representativityrate.
The rates are determined in relation to parity (which would amount to100 percent – full equality or the representation in decision-makingbodies equal to representation in membership). 120 percent wouldmean that the number of women in decision-making bodies is higherfor 20 percent than their share in membership and 50 percent thatthere are half as many women than there should be.

WHY WE INSIST ON PARITY OF WOMEN?
Representative democracy that - to every second female trade union
member deniesdenies to be represented in the
decision-making bodiesis not real democracy at all.
