The Network for East-West Women has recently announced the establishment of an on-line legal resource service that will focus on women's rights. The on-line service, which will be in the form of an electronic mailing list, will focus on identifying law school curricula, public education materials, international human rights documents, U.S. law case studies and legal success stories.

Initially NEWW intends to focus on one topic per month. The first month will deal with domestic violence. Later months will focus on labor, violence against women, family issues such as divorce and maternity leave, health, feminist legal theory, social insurance, and the criminal justice system.

The On-Line Legal Resource Service Project which is sponsored by the Eurasia Foundation will also compile a list of NIS organizations, legal advocates, women's information centers, and public interest law centers which focus on women's issues. Hopefully most of the information NEWW compiles will be made available at its World Wide Web site at: http://www.igc.apc.org/neww/

There will be both an English- and Russian-language electronic distribution list. To subscribe to the English-language list send a message with the words:
