100 YEARS OF CAMPAIGNS


Introducing WI Campaigns​
Formed in 1915, the WI has a long history of campaigning on a wide range of issues.
WI campaigns are about changing things for the better and tackling the issues that matter to members.

Members are at the heart of the WI and they play a central role in bringing issues onto the WI's national agenda through our public affairs and campaigning.  From equal pay to climate change, from gaps in the midwifery workforce to the plight of the honey bee, WI members have embraced a diverse set of challenges and built a reputation for the WI as a practical and ambitious organisation that doesn't shy away from tricky issues.


At the NFWI Resolution Shortlist Selection meeting member and federation delegates shortlisted five resolutions which are taken forward for further debate and voting by members.

The shortlisted resolutions for 2022
  1. Appropriate Sentencing of Non-Violent Women Offenders
  2. Equality in Law for the Menopause
  3. Fit for Purpose – Fit for Girls
  4. Tackling Digital Exclusion
  5. Women and Girls with ASD and ADHD Under-Identified, Under-Diagnosed and Under-Supported - was selected for debate at the AGM in Liverpool, June 2022​
​​We have campaigned on a huge range of issues in the past – from promoting women's rights and fostering health awareness, to encouraging sustainable development and building a fairer society.
