BackECWT is a sustainable European multi-stakeholder partnership representing high-level expertise in women and technology development from business, government, academia and non-profit sectors and supporting regional innovation through leveraging resources, research, best practices and services.
The decision to establish the ECWT was taken on 9th May 2008 by the International Taskforce for Women and ICTs (ITF) - Europe and the statutes were approved by the founders on 18th of July 2008.
The European Centre for Women and Technology (ECWT) is a European non-profit organization registered under Norwegian law.
ECWT functions as the European Regional Point of Contact (R-POC), one of the Ten Regional Centres presently being established around the world, which together constitute Global Women and Technology (GWT).
The European Centre advocates the establishment of a National Point of Contact (N-POC) in each country functioning as a national platform of multi-stakeholders to ensure women's full participation in ICT and related sectors.
