The Women International House of Trieste and its Library and Documentation Centre “Elca Ruzzier”
is a place run by and for women, regardless of age, social and ethnic origin. It is a point of reference and stimulus
to the political and programming activities of institutions, and it is a physical expression of the network
among organizations, associations and women's movements. At this place, women can express their creativeness
and ideas by organizing activities of cultural exchange, discussions, and meetings, thus improving women's
access to information and promoting their empowerment. In our paper we will present some of the most
successful projects carried out recently by the House.
