The chapter builds on the long-term study of women's public organizing in the Czech Republic. The main focus is on nongovernmental organizations that operate with an explicit agenda of advocating for gender equality or improving the position of women in the Czech context. The authors begin by mapping the roots and development of women's public organizing in the CR during the post-1989 transformation. In the second step, the authors examine the Czech Republic’s 2004 European Union accession and the effects of this development on women's public organizing. In the last part, from the perspective of Nancy Fraser's concept of "non-reformist reforms" the authors focus specifically on the claims and demands of Czech women's organizations concerning one of the core feminist issues - care.
