About us

GADIP is a non-governmental organisation established 2012 in Gothenburg. The organisation is managed by a working board with an equal division of academics and practitioners.

GADIP is a network for feminists within academia and civil society who are interested and engaged in mutual knowledge and best practice exchange. We are not bound to a political party or religion. The aim is to create a forum in which academics, practitioners and activists can meet in dialogue concerning gender and Development issues in Sweden and internationally.

GADIP cooperates with the European network WIDE+ (Women in Development Europe+) which has since 2007 included more than 60 practitioners from 33 different organisations, as well as researchers from different Universities in Sweden.
