Party Nadzeya was created on April 28, 1994. On June 3, 1994 it was registered by the Ministry of Justice of Belarus as 23. The members of the Party are representatives of local labor unions, active leaders of the trade unions and various womens movements of Belarus, as well as unemployed women. The membership is about 5,500 people. The party contains 39 head offices all across the country, and four regional branches (Belarus has six territorial regions). It is currently the only womens political party in Belarus of all 34 political parties.
The Party has been created to attract women to active social-political activities, to make them participate in conducting social and economic reforms, to build a democratic legal form of government based on the principles of law, freedom, justice, and humanism.
The Nadzeya party has had high political rankings since its creation. In most political polls it is ranked number one among all 34 political parties of Belarus. The Party keeps close contacts with all political organizations of Belarus. It participates in actions organized by the opposition. Thirty four members of the party Nadzeya were the candidates to the Parliament of the Republic of Belarus. During last years election, however, the election was shut down by President Alexander Lukashenko. Instead, he initiated a controversial referendum on November 24, 1996. Just before the referendum, together with seven other leading political opposition parties, the Nadzeya party was initiator of the so called Round Table, one of the most mous political actions against the Presidents policy. After the referendum, the political situation in the country has changed dramatically. The Nadzeya party, as well as the other political opposition parties, have become practically forbidden.
Besides the Chernobyl tragedy, Belarus currently has a very serious demographic and economic situation. The number of unemployed women has drastically increased. The number of diseased women, single mothers, children without parents, extremely poor milies is rising as well. That is why the main direction of the Nadzeya party is to solve specific social problems, to support needy women, to help milies with many children, and other categories of socially weak groups. For this reason the Nadzeya party and the trade unions created the social-educational center Nadzeya and discussion club Nadzeya to make it at least a little easier to work in our difficult political environment.
The Party has close contacts with many international womens organizations, specifically, with the Womens Party of Lithuania, Japanese Womens Organization For Chernobyl Victims, social-democratic parties of Slovenia, Czech Republic, and Poland, as well as womens organizations in the United States.
