This report analyzes the strategies that have emerged from AWID's experiences in economic, social, and cultural rights advocacy as expressed in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. The research is based on interviews, reports, and articles focusing on local-level experiences across international borders, including India, South Africa, Argentina and New Zealand. The report provides an overview of key challenges to women's social and economic rights in a political context and examines strategies used to achieve women's economic and social rights, including litigation and judicial processes, making and reforming public policy, and budget analysis. The report concludes with suggestions for collective advancement of AWID's activism more broadly.
