There are currently more people living in formal democracies that at any other time in history. Yet women continue to be on the margins of democracy, underrepresented and limited in their ability to exercise their rights and participate meaningfully in the decisions that affect their lives.

This three-day conference in Antigua, Guatemala is bringing together more than 100 women from around the world to examine the challenges of democracy and democratization through the lens of women's experiences.

Here, conference delegates will keep us up to date with stories, sights, and sounds from the ground, illuminating along the way the voices and ideas of the exceptional women whose courageous efforts to make change deserve global support. Bookmark this page to follow along on this important journey.
