The Heinrich Böll Foundation continuously promotes its concept of gender democracy by striving to inject gender awareness and perspectives in international political processes and institutions such as the UN Millennium Development Goals, the World Trade Organization and the World Bank. We also support and focus on gender-specific processes, regimes and institutions, such as the United Nations Beijing follow-up process, the UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), the UN Resolution 1325 or UNIFEM. The Heinrich Böll Foundation has its own Feminist Institute and international women's program administered by the Böll headquarters in Berlin and coordinates an international women's network GLOW. All employees are actively involved in the achievement of gender democracy and trained in gender-oriented program planning (GOPP).
