About Soroptimist International of Europe

Soroptimists educate, empower and enable women and girls to improve their lives. Soroptimist International of Europe (SIE) is a network of over 31,500 professional women who work together at the local, national and international levels to achieve this aim. It is the largest of the five Federations making up Soroptimist International which counts over 70,000 women as members. Our ambition is to transform the lives and status of women and girls through education, empowerment and enabling opportunities. As Soroptimists, we strive for the advancement of women’s status, high ethical standards, equality, development and peace, and the promotion of international goodwill and understanding. One of the ways we achieve this is through advocacy. SIE holds general consultative status at the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and participatory status at the Council of Europe and the European Women’s Lobby. SIE also participates in the work of OSCE through its permanent representatives. This allows SIE to advocate at the international level and lobby for the ratification and implementation of treaties concerning women and demand that priority issues for women receive their rightful place on the sustainable development agenda. Our members include women of all ages, representing a wide range of professions. We want to ensure that all women and girls have the opportunity to become leaders in their communities, and we will continue to lobby for them at all levels of society.
