Annual Report 2024 The 2024 annual report is entitled 'Together we are strong'. In these challenging times, this commitment is important. It is to be feared that the shift to the right in Europe and Trump as US President will have a negative impact on women's rights. It is becoming increasingly difficult to achieve change as political and financial challenges increase. This makes it all the more important for us, as a civil society, to stick together and stand in solidarity against adversity. FEMNET has and will therefore work with other civil society organisations to ensure that the German Federal Government and the EU adhere to and expand the first approaches towards a global economy based on solidarity – the German and European Supply Chain Act and the implementation of the SDG goals. We will fight together for international human rights, especially the rights of women and the LGBTQ+ community, and against nationalism and racism.

Annual Report 2023 Our highlights in 2023 in retrospect: In Bangladesh, textile workers took to the streets for a higher minimum wage. FEMNET has supported trade unions in Bangladesh in their fight for higher wages by funding a study that was the basis for wage negotiations. With three new projects, FEMNET has stepped up its deployment in Bangladesh, India and Indonesia. The complaint filed jointly with the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights (ECCHR) against IKEA and Amazon on the basis of the German Supply Chain Act with the competent Federal Office of Economics and Export Control (BAFA) was also significant.

Annual Report 2022 We look back on a year with many challenges but also highlights. A highlight was the annual partnership with the city of Bonn, which we were able to celebrate at the same time as our 15th anniversary. We are also pleased that Germany has finally ratified the ILO Convention 190 against Gender-Based Violence in the Workplace. But the challenges remain. Together with more than 100 other NGOs, we are committed to a more progressive supply chain law than the one applicable in Germany at EU level. We continued the fight for living wages, for health and against the suppression of trade union work together with cooperation partners in India, Banglasesch, Myanmar, Indonesia.
