Our feminist principles
Equipop has a long-standing commitment to women's rights and health.
In 2005, the association included the gender approach in all its actions, actively participating in its promotion in the international solidarity milieu. In 2016, noting that the gender approach, once integrated by organizations and public authorities, often lost its transformative capacity, the political analysis of power relations and structures of domination often being relegated to the background, the association adopted a feminist vision. This vision is based on a number of convictions and principles.
Our finances
As a non-profit organization, we are committed to rigorous and transparent management of our budget in the eyes of our members, donors, public institutions and the general public.
At Equipop, we are committed to diversifying our sources of funding. This is vital if we are to gain the independence to launch new projects in the field, and to face up to the growing difficulty of finding funding.
Our annual accounts are audited and certified by a statutory auditor. In addition, the use of funds is regularly audited by our French, European and international donors (AFD, French Ministries, United Nations Agency, European Union, private foundations, etc.).
