WMGS main activities and projects target the following:

bullet

Social cohesion and trust building between all ethnic groups and refugees in this rural multiethnic and multicultural region;

bullet

Economic reconstruction of local community through assistance to women in starting independent economic activities and securing sources of income;

bullet

Assistance to women in self-organizing and influencing democratic changes through different organizations and institutions.
 

Women's Multiethnic Group Seleus was founded on January 30, 1999 with the aim to contribute to economic empowerment of rural women and to use their positive energy to develop local community.
 The women from Seleuš struggle for democracy through economy. We believe that most of our problems in economy can be solved by focusing on education and production. Our projects target economic reconstruction, reconciliation and offering help to rural communities. Seleuš has been chosen as a typical multiethnic environment in Vojvodina, inhabited by a few ethnic groups (Romanians, Serbs, Romas)
It is through economic activities that we want to achieve development of tolerance and cooperation between the native inhabitants and the refugees – for a year passed without the refugees truly meeting the women from the village. They met for the first time at the establishing meeting.
It gives me great pleasure that now women, driven by their own interest and interests, freely get involved in our activities and projects with great enthusiasm and energy.
 

Cordially yours,
