ADVANCING THE RIGHTS OF WOMEN & GIRLS WORLDWIDE
Since 1976, the International Center for Research on Women has set the global agenda for gender equity, inclusion, and shared prosperity with our action-oriented research and solutions.
Our Work
Gender inequity lies at the root of every major problem the world faces. Therefore, gender must inform every solution, from creating sustainable business practices, to expanding opportunities for youth, to addressing the ever-changing global health challenges.
Research
Fueled by our commitment to equity, ICRW's research team is comprised of experienced researchers and analysts who are committed to conducting high-quality research that contributes to meaningful change for women, girls, and structurally excluded populations.
Programs
Our Advisors, Research, and Advocacy teams work in close collaboration to design and implement evidence-based programs that promote gender equality and empower women, girls, and structurally excluded populations.
Advocacy
Our Advocacy team works closely with our Research team to develop evidence-based policy recommendations and advocate for change at the local, national, and global levels.
Advisory Services
Our Advisors team works closely with our researchers to provide evidence-based guidance and results-oriented solutions to corporations, nonprofits, philanthropic organizations, and other stakeholders.
Gender Centers of Excellence
We are committed to transitioning from a traditional nonprofit structure to a network system that prioritizes low-and middle-income countries, allowing us to better serve women, girls, and structurally excluded populations. Our Gender Centers of Excellence in Asia and Africa, deeply rooted in their communities, will shape global policies and actions through actionable insights and knowledge sharing. By empowering local researchers, activists, and practitioners, we aim to recalibrate power dynamics and foster inclusive ecosystems.
