EQUIS: Justicia para las Mujeres is a feminist organization that works for access to justice for women by transforming power structures that generate oppression and exclusion. EQUIS envisions a world where all women, in their diversity, live in justice and where feminism is a way of living that allows all people to inhabit spaces of joy and well-being. EQUIS works to strengthen its structure and guarantee its financial and institutional sustainability so that it can react more assertively to social change, continue innovating, and establish networks for the exchange of knowledge at the national and international levels.
