THE BRITISH SECTION OF THE EUW
When the EUW was founded in 1953, the principal aim was to encourage European women in different countries to study and resolve common problems.
The EUW believes that women should be encouraged to play an active part in civic life, and membership includes business and professional women, MPs, MEPs and local Councillors.
The EUW maintains regular dialogues between the National Sections through the work of the EUW Commissions and the visits organised by Europe Alive. Particular attention is paid to issues that concern the European Parliament, the Council of Europe and the United Nations.
The Management Board of British Section comprises the officers and the Regional Chairmen. The Management Board meets four times per year. The Council of British Section comprises those on the Management Board, Branch Chairmen, Commission leaders and full members of Commissions, and those with special responsibilities. The Council meets twice a year, one of the occasions usually being during the Spring Break.
