Emancipator has been affiliated with MenEngage since its inception in 2014, is active in the steering committee of MenEngage Europe, has been co-coordinator until 2019 and again since 2022, and hosted the secretariat 2018-2019.

CEDAW: UN Convention on Women

In 1991, the Netherlands ratified CEDAW, the United Nations’ Women’s Convention. The UN Women Convention Network monitors its implementation in the Netherlands and writes shadow reports to accompany the Netherlands’ quadrennial reports to the UN CEDAW Committee. Emancipator is a member of the UN Women’s Convention Network.

The MenCare Campaign engages men as fathers and caregivers to advance gender equality. In the Netherlands, Emancipator is working to create a network of organisations and professionals to stimulate caring qualities in men and encouraging men towards caring tasks and professions.
