Where ICRW works

Using a Gender Lens

ICRW works to empower women, improve their status and guarantee their human rights. Yet at ICRW, we not only speak of women, but of gender.

When ICRW views a problem through a gender lens, it means we seek to understand what are the expected and common norms of behavior and how these differentially influence the lives of girls and boys, women and men.
