Mission and Objectives

ZUIS, Slovene Union of University Women is a non-profit organization uniting university women from all areas of expertise who wish to promote better educational and professional opportunities for young university women, students and special groups. We operate in the area of gender, race equality, harmonized family relations and we strive to promote peace and understanding among people.

Main Projects / Activities

We are very active in research and campaigns in fight against violence upon women, equal pay for equal work, fight against trafficking of women and children. Since 1997 we’ve been working towards reconciliation of family life and professional obligations of women. SUUW was the first national affiliation to come out with this project which is now very much in focus of all women’s organizations. In the area of education we are promoting computer literacy among elder members of our affiliation – the project carried out during 2009/2010 at the Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana. In November 2010 we participated at demonstrations against un-human treatment of Hungarian doctor who helped at birth giving at home. SUUW campaigned for more detailed instructions about giving birth at home to be specified in our national legislation.
Some of our latest projects:
- 11 April 2012 we organized a colloquium “Women holding leading positions in Higher Education in Slovenia: Overcoming barriers – real or imagined”, held at the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Ljubljana. We invited female leaders in this area to identify barriers to female leadership in Higher Education and to develop strategies for promoting greater access for women to Higher Education decision making positions including the creation of global network. The project is part of the International Federation of University Women program and the outcomes of the colloquium will be presented on the IFUW Annual Conference in Istanbul in 2013.
- On the occasion of International Women’s Day, on 8 March 2012 SUUW presented the results of a survey we have been doing since 2011 on the impact of the recession on the position of women in Slovenia. IWD was a perfect occasion to draw attention, through the results of the survey, to the current situation of women in the Slovene labour market. The presentation was held in the National Council Hall in Ljubljana.
- In 2009 we organized and held a visit of University Women of Europe (UWE) former President Willemijn van der Meer and Secretary General Gerda Leushuis.
- Currently we are preparing to join (as partners) an EU project Violence Against Women, coordinated by the Finnish Association of University Women.
