    WESTT receives an annual donation of 24,000 EUR to cover two staff positions and nominal travel and administration expenditure. Other team members work on the objectives of WESTT in both internship and training capacities. Much of its work is done in working in collaboration with other groups and volunteers promoting the rights of women and human rights. Remuneration is not currently taken by the Director. This way the cost is kept down and the budget remains low, allowing WESTT to achieve the goals set with limited resources. WESTT is a corporate social responsibility activity of MADI GROUP.

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
