Abstract

The Seventh National Conference of the Women’s Movements in India was unique in several ways. For one, women’s groups worked relentlessly over the last eight years to make this conference happen. Since the last conference at Ranchi in 1998, most people believed that the series of these National Conferences had ended and that the autonomous women’s movement conferences had ground to a halt. But it took the 21st century and limitless optimism and endeavour on the part of women’s organizations, feminist NGOs, autonomous collectives and others for this conference to materialize in Kolkata in September 2006.
