Abstract: We introduce an equivariant version of the weak expectation property (WEP) at the level of operator modules over completely contractive Banach algebras A. We prove a number of general results---for example, a characterization of the A-WEP in terms of an appropriate A-injective envelope, and also a characterization of those A for which A-WEP implies WEP. In the case of A=L1(G), we recover the G-WEP for G-C-algebras in recent work of Buss--Echterhoff--Willett. When A=A(G), we obtain a dual notion for operator modules over the Fourier algebra. These dual notions are related in the setting of dynamical systems, where we show that a W-dynamical system (M,G,alpha) with M injective is amenable if and only if M is L1(G)-injective if and only if the crossed product is A(G)-injective. Analogously, we show that a C-dynamical system (A,G,alpha) with A nuclear and G exact is amenable if and only if A has the L1(G)-WEP if and only if the reduced crossed product GltimesA has the A(G)-WEP.
