HIC Women and Shelter Network Germany/ FOPA Hamburg e.v.
FOPA is a network of women planners and architects in Germany founded in 1981. FOPA Hamburg has started to act as an Iniative Centre for the HIC Women and Shelter Network in Germany in 1994. We have been active in the context of the Habitat II - Conference. In 1995 we organized the first National Round Table of Women Planners for Habitat II on "Gender-sensitive and sustainable human settlements development" in cooperation with our sister organisation, the SRL- Working Group "Women in Planning" (SRL- Organisation for Urban und Regional Planning, Germany). Since then we have been participating in the Istanbul-Conference and the following UN Commissions on Human Settlements in Nairobi to stress women´s and gender issues. In Germany we raised gender issues in the context of global urbanisation and informed about the commitments made by our government and the United Nations towards sustainable and gender-sensitive urban development which are fixed in the Habitat Agenda and the Agenda 21.
Mail us ! We are looking forward to grow and exchange material and views on our urban future.

Mazingira Institute
We look at how the global relates to the local, in a globalising and urbanising world. A world of skewed development in which the human dignity and empowerment of the few rather than the many is realized. We see the overlap of the global and the local, or the web of'glocalization' intensifying in diverse places, affecting social and decision process, practices and governance.
Our voice is for the realization of human dignity and empowerment of everyone - women, men and children and for ecological integrity everywhere. Making the global act for the local is of concern to us.
We integrate diverse ways to inquire and to act. Our work extends relevant knowledge and practices, promotes learning and cooperation and enhances ethical solidarity and advocacy.
