Gender inequity lies at the root of every major problem the world faces. And so gender must inform every solution. Driven by our vision of equity for all, our researchers dig into the ways gender shapes societies and the ways people’s lives are diminished by power imbalances. When we find proof, we take it out into the light and transform it into answers. Answers that power our advocacy. Answers that inform our consulting. Answers that animate our program design.

For decades, ICRW has conducted pioneering research that has exposed gender inequities and opportunities for fundamental social change. Our answers help us overcome the world’s most intractable challenges. Together, we bring proof to power.
