Our Priority

2012-2016 Quadrennial Priorities

 

The Quadrennial Priorities presented here represent the accumulated wisdom and concern of women across the movement.  These priorities are offered as general guideposts for this quadrennial as they allow a variety of specific actions to be taken in support of them according to the interests, knowledge, and skill set of each unit within CWU.  The Action/Global Concerns Committee is in the process of creating an accompanying document that will offer specific actions for each of the priorities listed below.  This document will be available sometime later this year.
