Brazil
WiN Brazil lived a revival process around the years of 2017-2018, becoming the first Latin-American chapter to structure a system of governance based on elections.
WiN Brazil has been conquering spaces in the Brazilian nuclear stage as a significant actor in gender balance and communication. Our chapter values gender equity as a pillar of a just society; female empowerment as a mechanism for change; scientific thinking as basis for development and the democratic process as form of participation.
