During the 11th Conference of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance, the more global character of the international women's movement, which had become visible since the conference in Rome a few years prior, resulted in issues around the Western dominance within the movement, voiced by the Indian representative of the National Council of Women in India.Parr, R.

Non-Western representatives voiced the need to organize women's movements also in other parts of the world, a need expressed notably by Saiza Nabarawi.Kingsley Kent, S., Matera, M. (2017).
